Hi Thorsten, Is there a list of changes in v. 10 somewhere where I can check to see whether the pixel-accuracy issue has been solved? Having bought a fresh Mac I now know the problem is not a feature of my computer! Best, T. Tony Jackson Devon, UK.

Hi Thorsten, as usual:https://www.lemkesoft.de/en/products/gr ... rsions/Yes, I had another go and found it - but no mention of changes to pixel accuracy, alas.  Can you confirm that this has not featured among the bug fixes since v. 8 was introduced?I had to buy v.8 to use with a system update, but I still have to keep a Mac on os 10.4 to run GC5.6, which afaik is the last pixel-accurate version.  V.8 no longer supports Black and white or 4-colour either - I guess the same is true for v. 10?  Sorry to be troublesome and ask, but downloading v. 10 just to see if these things work (with low likelihood of a happy outcome) looks like a lot of time and some risk!Is there a list of changes in v. 10 somewhere where I can check to see whether the pixel-accuracy issue has been solved? Having bought a fresh Mac I now know the problem is not a feature of my computer!Best regards, Tony. Tony JacksonDevon, UK.
