- The problem is caused by the latest version of the CyberGraphics software
- for your CyberVision board. I also have this problem using a Picasso board.
- Luckily there is a workaround that allows WordWorth to run, although it
- does flash the screen a bit.
-
- Add the ToolType PICASSO=TRUE to your WordWorth 5 Icon. WordWorth now uses
- a different method of displaying text which makes it visible. Hopefully the
- next CyberGfx update will undo whatever they did to the current update.
