Text rotation is incorrect on Win95. True for 8, 16, 32-bits. Looks fine
on NT, Solaris. (The gifs from Bill Day show different results from mine.
On my system, the example displays properly on beta3, beta4 for both NT and
95. Win95 isn't correct on JDK1.2-K.

Here's the original message from Bill Day:

Subject: Two new bugs in Java 2D, 1.2 Beta 4?
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit

In updating the Java 2D code from my previous, 1.2B3-compliant
JavaWorld columns to work with 1.2B4, I've just hit a couple of
potential Java 2D bugs. Hopefully these are known issues and someone
on the list or at Sun can point me to the right Bug Parade
information for workarounds (or give me a good frap for overlooking
something obvious :-).


In 1.2B3, the output for my first article's Example04 was:

In 1.2B4, I had to change GeneralPath.EVEN_ODD to
GeneralPath.WIND_EVEN_ODD, but have changed nothing else. The
output in 1.2B4 for Win32 is however significantly different:

Any ideas why this occurs? The code for this example is at (1.2B3
version):

Jonathan Knudsen has verified that this does _not_ occur on his
particular WinNT box, but I do see this reproducibly on my Win95
system.
