I was just using MacDraw II (1.0) and for the first time I mixed bold (and
outline/shadow/etc) in one line with regular text and the "special" words
ended up overlapping the plain text. Is this a known problem, perhaps with
System 6.0.2 or just Claris (who should know better)? It doesn't seem to
happen in MacWrite 5.0, so maybe it is a graphics program bug.
Additionally, if anyone has comments on alternate graphics programs,
particularly SuperPaint 2.0 and possibly Canvas, could they please e-mail me.
I like the MacDraw setup generally, but the inability to flip text and the
way it handles text is major bummer. (I have SuperPaint 1.1 & am considering
upgrading it).
Thanks in advance.
