That's good news. The slower it is, the more you would realize a
slowdown effect (because it would use more additional CPU time).
At least in a direct comparison.

Hmm, we fixed some already, but this is important.  Can you tell us
which Fl_xyz this was about?

They can be printed, yes, but they don't print as subwindows by default,
AFAIK.

Maybe because Domingo used the XPS printer. I tried it on Windows 7 and
it worked w/o zombies. Interesting with XPS: There are lots of missing
lines etc., but (... surprise, surprise ...) transparency works. The
image with alpha draws with the white X in the background, and the
pixmap is drawn w/o the black bg.  I wouldn't bother to look for bugs
in our code, though (WRT missing lines). That's probably a MS / XPS
fault.

Thanks for testing and the report!
