- You've all heard the bug about dotted vertical and horizontal lines
- appearing (and not always clearing) when popping up menus on the WPS
- desktop. Well, I've noticed that after installing a background bitmap
- for the desktop, these lines don't appear.
-
- I've no idea why, but I figured it should be mentioned.
-
- PS: Anyone with Windows background bitmaps can use them unmodified
- with WPS. Apparantly, you don't have to convert them to OS/2
- bitmaps for Lockup and the background to read them. I've
- currently got the Windows 3.1 "Arcade" backdrop tiled across my
- desktop with no ill effects (although it's kind of hard to read
- icon text)
