Hi Greg,

It is wonderful for your latest release of Microwindows v0.89pre2. It provides
most things I am working.
Would you like to give me some advice of the following questions?

1) How to use True Type fonts correctly?
I find that all strings are of the same fonts in logfont.sh demo.
something like that:
Proportional
Bold Proportional
Italics Proportional
Bold Italics Proportional
Oblique Proportional
...
...


Which directory should I place the -fonts-truetype-0.89pre2, I mean under
microwin or microwin/src or microwin/src/fonts ,etc.

2) Do you have any idea why the nxkbd and nxscribble cannot run in background on
 Assabet board (arm-linux)?
I got the following errors:

./nxkbd &
[1] 74
Client: bad readblock -1
CRITICAL: Client 74: Corrupted packet

[1]+ Broken pipe ./nxkbd


*remark: nxkbd and nxscribble can be run properly under native linux (X86)

3) Cannot focus on input field
condition : I run my application which is written by fltk after running
scribble.sh demo

The cursor will disappear when I focus the soft keyboard.
This means I cannot send the keyboard event to the desired input field. I have
to push the top bar of window of my application, i.e. the window bar is
highlighted.
Then the problem seem be solved.
The drawback is that it is inconvenient to push the window top bar and then push
 the input field to focus.
I think it is natural the user just push or tap the input field to focus and
then turn to soft keyboard to send the key event to the focused input field.

Problems related to fltk:
4) Popup menu object changed?
When the popup menu is tapped, it shows a separate window instead of popup menu.
 Also, the separate window contains nothing rather that menu items.

5) How can I change the font size or type in fltk?
It seems there is only one font size/type shown on my application even I
explicitly change the font size/type in program.
Can the problems be solved when using True Type font instead?

6) Font misalignment
I find the font misalign when scrolling.
Can I solve the problem by invoke Fl_Scroll::redraw() method after scrolling? On
 the other hand, it there a callback during scrolling?
I've tried but not find. Please advise.


Thanks,
Hifi Wong.
