Hi, I recently tried to start using the True Type Font module in ROOT. I only had one problem. My XServer (actually Exceed 6.0 running on Windows NT) was configured to use True Color. In this configuration I kept getting error like: Error in <RootX11ErrorHandler>: BadValue (integer parameter out of range for operation) (XID: 16249847) when trying to display a canvas with some text in it. After some iteration with Fons, we found two possible solutions to the problem. The simpliest one was for me to change my configuration from "TrueColor" to "PseudoColor" in the Exceed configuration screens. This solved all the problems. If others are having the same type of problems and are unable to work around it with just a configuration change, it might be possible to write some code to avoid calling the offending functions. So we would like to know, if others have had the same type of problems? Thanks, Philippe Canal, pcanal@fnal.gov, 630-840-2545.
