---------------------------------------------------------------------

THE FOLLOWING PROBLEMS ARE KNOWN TO EXIST IN VERSION 4.2.


---------------------------------------------------------------------
----- GENERAL -------------------------------------------------------
---------------------------------------------------------------------

*** GENERAL ***
- The VLIST tutorial does not work properly if the environment has
  problems with UIW_TABLE.
- Sort information is not yet loadable from a .DAT file.
- UI_PRINTER support for dot matrix printers is limited to text
  output only.
- UIW_TABLE class has a limit of 32K of records.

*** INTERNATIONALIZATION ***
- Not all of the languages documented as "supported" are complete.
  The not-yet-translated strings are in English. See the following
  messages in the "LANG_[ISO LANG CODE].CPP" files:

    NMI_LESS_THAN_RANGE                  ZIL_MSG_OK
    NMI_GREATER_THAN_RANGE               ZIL_MSG_YES
                                         ZIL_MSG_NO
    DTI_LESS_THAN_RANGE                  ZIL_MSG_ABORT
    DTI_GREATER_THAN_RANGE               ZIL_MSG_RETRY
                                         ZIL_MSG_IGNORE
    TMI_LESS_THAN_RANGE                  ZIL_MSG_CANCEL
    TMI_GREATER_THAN_RANGE               ZIL_MSG_HELP


---------------------------------------------------------------------
----- DOS -----------------------------------------------------------
---------------------------------------------------------------------

*** GENERAL ***
- ZIL_3D_BORDER text mode style is not complete.
- UI_PRINTER does not handle critical errors (e.g., printer out of
  paper, off line, busy, etc.).
- UI_PRINTER TextWidth() function is not complete.
- UI_PRINTER with PCL does not print filled polygons and only prints
  full ellipses (no arcs or sectors).
- UIW_IMAGE only works with GFX libraries.
- IMF_SCALED does not work with UIW_IMAGE.
- Some DOS Real mode tutorial and example programs can run out of memory--
  in some cases, even on startup.  Any program that creates many windows,
  uses most or all of the Zinc library objects, or that has many
  bitmaps and icons, should be built using a DOS extender or overlays.
  ZINCAPP, MOVIE, MOVIE7, PERIOD, PRINTR, MDI, WORLD, and AGENCY are
  Zinc programs that are probably too big in most cases for real mode DOS.
  To be safe, implement a new handler similar to the FRESTR example that
  can exit gracefully if the program runs out of memory.
- POWERPACK 16 bit.  Switching between multiple fonts doesn't seem to
  work correctly with 16 bit PowerPak.  Right now, only the
  FNT_DIALOG_FONT is used for all Zinc library objects.
- POWERPACK 32 bit.  There is a bug in the BGI32.DLL that causes
  mouse trails to appear when xor mode is used for drawing.  Borland
  has released a BGI32.DLL patch to fix this problem.  Zinc ships
  this patch on the DOS disks.

*** DOS EXTENDERS ***
- DOS16M - No BGI support - only GFX.
- POWERPACK - No GFX support - only BGI.
- PharLap DLLs are not supported.

*** INTERNATIONALIZATION ***
- Support for all DOS/V's in text mode is not complete--specifically,
  line draw characters that are 2 bytes wide cause problems.
- PC-DOS/V 6.3 Taiwan comes with ETEN functionality.  If you use
  this (chevtsr) to switch to English mode and switch back, the
  codepage is set to 938 even if the codepage is 950.
  This prevents the ZAF codepage mapping functions from being able
  to load the appropriate mapping tables.

---------------------------------------------------------------------
----- WINDOWS -------------------------------------------------------
---------------------------------------------------------------------

*** GENERAL ***
- Putting "~~" in the string for an object that allows a hot key
  displays '&' instead of '~'.
- Hot keys do not work if the current object is an editable
  UIW_COMBO_BOX.
- Pressing F1 for help in a pull-down menu does not work.
- The Symantec compiler requires significant increases in stack size.
  If you experience problems with any Zinc application, increase the
  stack size in the appropriate .DEF file.  For this reason, Zinc
  recommends that you do not use this compiler for Windows.

*** CONSTRAINTS ***
- WOF_JUSTIFY_ flags do not function on objects derived from
  UIW_STRING unless they are WOS_OWNERDRAW.
- UIW_PULL_DOWN_MENUs and UIW_POP_UP_MENUs always act as if
  WNF_CONTINUE_SELECT is set and WNF_NO_WRAP is not set.
- UIW_WINDOWs with a parent may not have a pull-down menu.
- If you do not have a MNIF_MINIMIZE item in a non-SYF_GENERIC system
  button the window cannot be minimized. A similar problem exists with
  MNIF_MAXIMIZE, MNIF_MOVE, and MNIF_SIZE. Also, without an
  MNIF_CLOSE the window cannot be closed with the system button.

*** ENHANCEMENTS ***
- Zinc as a DLL is not supported.

*** PRE-RELEASE ***
- Argument rearranging does not work with MS Windows NT on AXP with
  Microsoft & Digital C/C++ 8.03.  You must comment out
  #define ZIL_REARRANGEARGS in UI_ENV.HPP.


---------------------------------------------------------------------
----- OS/2 ----------------------------------------------------------
---------------------------------------------------------------------

*** INTERNATIONALIZATION ***
- Codepage 932 (OS/2 J) is supported, but codepage 942 is not supported.

*** ENHANCEMENTS ***
- Zinc as a DLL is not supported.


---------------------------------------------------------------------
----- MACINTOSH -----------------------------------------------------
---------------------------------------------------------------------

*** GENERAL ***
- Child windows are not fully supported.

*** COMPILERS ***
- MPW C++ compilers are not certified.


---------------------------------------------------------------------
----- MOTIF ---------------------------------------------------------
---------------------------------------------------------------------

*** GENERAL ***
- UIW_TABLE object does not function properly.
- Owner draw windows with scroll bars may not draw correctly.
- MDI children may position themselves incorrectly if the parent is
  resized.

*** CONSTRAINTS ***
- Drag and Drop requires Motif 1.2.
- MDI children are independent windows that are not constrained by
  the bounds of the parent.

*** ENHANCEMENTS ***
- HPUX, Sun Solaris, SunOS, QNX, SCO and DesqView/X are Zinc certified.
  AIX, OSF/1, and x86 are not yet Zinc certified.
