Hi Deron:

I finally installed the .35 update, made the mistake of
reading the Read-me file, and noticed the bit about the
arrow termination's being fixed.
I loaded an old doc that had been drawn on version 5 and
version 4, back when the arrow weren't displaying on version
5. Right away I notice that the handles were not at the end
of the line. To make sure that it wasn't version related I
drew some new lines.

A line drawn horizontally appears 1/8" + to the right of the
handles. Direction of draw has no effect.
A line drawn vertically appears about 3/16" to the right of
where the line was drawn and where the handles are shown.

I haven't tried anything else yet.

Using Dell Laptop running Win ME.

I copied the smaller update files over my .34 version. If
you request it, I could download a full install and put it
in a new Dir. ?

Not necessary to download! I've done. Problems with arrows in all win
...35 versions.

Well, like I said to Frank, it works here, but maybe you have a different
version than I do? (Should not be possible, but then again, anything is
possible...)

If you download the full install of the latest and it still does this,
please send a small document with lines that cause this problem for you,
and a screen shot to show me what it is you are seeing. Thanks! (Email to
support@grasshopperllc.com).

Hi Deron & Frank:

Done some more testing - V E R Y I N T E R E S T I N G.

I downloaded version .36, full install and copied it into an
empty folder. Opened my file with the arrows, sure-enough
all the lines are displaced to the right. Problem still here
so I'll make a new doc just for demo.
Well, in the new doc all was fine. So I went back to the old
doc to test further.
The doc had 7 layers. I tried drawing lines on every layer.
The results were good on every layer except #5. Layer #5 has
only dimension line and numbers, and was the last layer
drawn, but moved into the #5 position. Also the Layer was
drawn on PgS version 4 because the arrows were not
displaying on version 5 at the time.
Everything on that layer displays offset to the right,
including the text objects. When I draw new lines on that
layer they are offset. I opened the same file in PgS version
4. It behaves exactly the same as discovered in version 5
(except, of course, the arrow heads which have been fixed).

Back in version 5..36 I moved to layer 5 and dissolved it.
Now the objects and handles are all in the proper place,
relative to each other, but offset to the right from where
they should be. I selected all the object and moved them to
the left to the proper place, made them back into a layer,
then moved it back to layer 5 position.

All seems to be fine now.
