I have installed the lastest version. Doesn't seem to work with _sans either. I can generate flash movies with images. Can not add text. Please advise if any additional information is required. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-12-03 15:53:09] weishengli at yahoo dot com Hi, This problem in Windows OS is actually caused by call function SWFShape_setRightFill(). In turn it goes to the function newShapeRecord() I changed the following line in this function return shape->records[shape->nRecords++]; as shape->nRecords++; return shape->records[shape->nRecords-1]; It solves the problem. However, I didn't look at it deeply. The one who is distributing the Windows DLL should think about it.

I do however see a number of memory leaks caused by this extension: /home/rei/PHP_CVS/php4/Zend/zend_hash.c(178) : Freeing 0x083A1AA4 (32 bytes), script=m.php Last leak repeated 2 times /home/rei/PHP_CVS/php4/Zend/zend_API.c(597) : Freeing 0x083A1A44 (44 bytes), script=m.php /home/rei/PHP_CVS/php4/Zend/zend_API.c(585) : Actual location (location was relayed) Last leak repeated 2 times Using Google I found the following archive of fdb fonts, http://todbot.com/ming/tsts/fonts/, the url provided by php@mled.net does not appear to work. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-10-09 20:01:55] tonalgeek at hotmail dot com I know the bug still exists in Ming. Anyway if you want an alternative that works there is FreeMovie/PHP http://freemovie.sourceforge.net/. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
