Using v. 9.7.5

Post by ex387jn »

The change from trusty OS 10.6.8 and Eudora and GC 5.8 has been wretched in many ways: The need to use Apple ‘Mail’ has revealed just how spoiled I have been all these years! Todays display of vice is that all recent mails to gcmac have suddenly vanished from inbox, outbox and everywhere in between, save that my last post to you has been found in the trash. And GC 9.7.5 has a version of the same vice as GC 8 had. Draw a line (I used the Brush tool, and drew a rough diagonal). Enlarge to 5000% Choose Selection tool. Try to draw a marquee upwards and to the left or to the right. You will see that the marquee starts one pixel below the insertion point. Try to draw a marque *downwards*, and the marquee starts at the insertion point. Perhaps this doesn’t matter to any one else, but for my pixel-editing purposes it renders the program useless and maddening. Hence my persisting with the remains of v. 5.8, even if in some ways it didn’t function with OS 10.6.8. Best regards, Tony.
