Selected Test Results

What works

Viewing, editing, saving files. Layers.

All Visio buttons and menu functions.

Didn't encounter the problems with listboxes, dropdowns and page renaming that were reported in the previous test by another user.


What does not

Some minor display issues, but I'm not sure if those are Wine issues. Didn't investigate further.

One drawing was displayed only above 62% zoom level.

In shape pane, stencil titles

Printing worked but text did not print.

Workarounds

Had to uncheck "Smooth drawing" in Tools - Options - View, otherwise drawing wouldn't display.

Had to optimize background colors in Tools - Options - Advanced.

What was not tested

Customer binding features such as Tools - Online collaboration and Internet shape search.

Hardware tested
