This page lists the most obvious issues we already know about or are working on in 4.4 beta. If you encounter a bug, it is good to check here before reporting it. If it isn't here, then let us know about it -- see Submitting a Bug Report. Our official listing is our internal bug-base, which is far more extensive than what we show here -- we try to keep this to the ones of greated interest, or most frequently encountered.

  • On a few computers, a small rectangle is left un-repainted after an overlaying window has closed. You see the animation close the window, but the last little patch remains. On a few other computers, most of the region under the closed window is left unpainted. (Impacts maybe 1 in 20)
  • In build 4.4.0.9, child MDI windows can't be minimized.
  • The "Use Excel Date Origin" preference is not using the correct date origin.
    Workaround: Press F12 to open typescript, type: Sv__DateOriginOffset:-1462
  • Some legacy 4.3 models, when loaded into 4.4, start using the ClearType font immediately. This causes word wrapping on diagram nodes that don't appear when the model is loaded in 4.3. When a legacy model is loaded, a "don't use ClearType" flag is supposed to be set, but this is not happening.
    Recommended workaround: Adjust your nodes by pressing Ctrl+A, then press Ctrl+T one or more times until the adjusted layout looks as you like. Continue using ClearType fonts.
    Other workaround: Press F12 to open typescript, then type: With Untitled (replacing Untitled with the identifier of your model), then type: Att_clearTypeFonts:0.
