Re: GoWrite - problems with dialog boxes getting overwritten - Windows 11

Lauri - My graphics card is NVIDIA GeForce 3060 Ti - Windows tells me that it has the latest driver installed. (31.0.15.2698 is my current driver). My PC was custom built in November 2022. If I go to the NVIDIA website and look at drivers, I could update it for gaming. I have not tried this - to me ...

Re: GoWrite - problems with dialog boxes getting overwritten - Windows 11

Re: GoWrite - problems with dialog boxes getting overwritten - Windows 11

Lauri - My PC is ARM - it was bought in November 2022. I have installed GoWrite2 3.2.3 and that has worked fine so far. I note that it contains a java jdk - so I don't need the standalone JRE. So at the moment I can't reproduce the problem. I am worried as my hand written notes tell me that in mid M...

Re: GoWrite - problems with dialog boxes getting overwritten - Windows 11

Lauri - You asked about screen scaling - which I am using - but not dual monitors. I have done a brief test using my original GoWrite and Java. I am using Windows 11 with a 1920x1200 screen and the Windows display screen scale set to 150%. The separate setting to make text bigger is set to 150%. The...

GoWrite doesn't support Java 9.0.1 64 bit on Windows 7 64 bit

I was using GoWrite Version 2 and it stopped working after an upgrade to Firefox (64 bit version 56.0.2). It took a while to track down, but on Windows 7 Professional 64 bit the latest 64 bit version of Java doesn't work with GoWrite - I get a "unable to find JVM" message. GoWrite 2.3.48 a...
