WMF/EMF issues

Summary

Issue (1)

Importing a polyhatch in a .EMF file. Please see the attached file "outlinehatch.emf".

This contains both a polyhatch and a polyline that outlines the hatch. Note the VectorDraw will import the outline correctly, but appears to mix up the Y values for the vertices of the polyhatch.


Issue (2)

Imported WMF files sometimes do not import with the correct aspect ratio. Please see attached files "unitSquare.emf" and "unitSquare.wmf".

These are both exported from the same CorelDraw 12 design. Adobe Illustrator, CorelDraw, and all other applications import them both as squares. VectorDraw imports the .emf file correctly, but stretches the .wmf in the x direction.


Issue (3)

Polyhatch in an .emf file converted to VDF format yields unclosed polyline when exploded. Please see attached files "filledHatch.emf" and "filledHatch.vdf".

The VectorDraw Explode method yields a closed 4-point polyline with the polyhatch found in "filledHatch.emf". However, if the .emf file is converted to VDF v5x1 format as in "filledHatch.vdf", the Explode method yields a 4-point polyline with its closed flag set to 0 (open).

Solution

Issues (1) and (3) are fixed in 5.1.1.1039
