We received our upgrade copy of MacDraw II yesterday and began trying it out
today.  It appears to be severely handicapped on Macintosh IIs with Radius
FPD displays.  The symptoms include only drawing part of a line on the
screen.  If you draw a box, it only draws the top and left and sides, but
not the bottom or right side.  If you zoom in or out, then the rest of the
object is drawn and stays drawn if you go back to a 100% zoom.  But any
newly added objects will appear messed up.  Completely horizontal lines
often are drawn on the screen at all (even though they are there).  This
problem does not occur on our SEs that have the Radius FPDs, nor does it
occur on our Mac II with the Apple color monitor.  Claris doesn't seem to
have tested this configuration (they apparently just tested SEs and
Radiuses).  Has anyone else seen a problem like this on a Mac II with a
Radius display?
