Hi Alan I have recently discovered a couple of bugs in the wxWidgets driver.
One is rather a feature of wxWidgets instead of a bug. It turns out that when constructing a font with size 70 pt you actually get the default system font size. I found this when doing an animated plot today with points that shrank with time. I got a weird jump in size when they got to 7 pt. This cause is that in wxWidgets there is a constant used to say you want the default system size, but instead of using a sensible value like -1 for this constant it is set to be 70. Unfortunately the wx devs have said they will not fix this as that constant is too deeply ingrained in the code to change it safely. There is a workaround though. And I've added that to my local copy. I also found a bug in the device code. There is a positional error with text that occurs when the style changes midway along a line (eg through use of #u or #d). Again I have fixed this in my local copy. There is also a positional error which occurs when a style change occurs midway through a line and that line has been rotated. Basically the start position of the differently styled chunk of text appears to need rotating if you see what I mean. I think this just requires a minor change to fix, but I haven't done it yet. Hopefully tomorrow. There are also the map issues that were reported on here a few weeks ago. I just wanted to check if it is too late to submit these. Fixes now?
