- Hi.. I received my Think Ref 2.0 upgrade, and it's a really awesome program..
-
- But I've noticed that there seems to be a bug. ("Seems to be" = I have not
- thoroughly tested it out, but I'm fairly certain it's a result of Think Ref
- and not something else.)
-
- When I use "A5" as a search key, it jumps me to the "About Memory Management"
- page. From there, if I try to print, Think Reference unexpectedly prints
- and the Finder says that it's damaged (Think Ref) and cannot print.
-
- Can anyone try to reproduce this problem? And, if it is a bug, is Symantec
- aware of it? (Note that I have successfully printed other pages. About
- Memory Management has graphics, and I haven't printed any pages with graphics,
- so that might be what's causing it a problem if there is a problem.)
-
- Also, here's another easter egg in Think Ref 2.0: If you have it running in
- the background, and switch to it after it's been awhile, then the icon with
- the guy sitting down animates briefly to show him waking up (or something).
- Kind of neat..
-
- Thanks for any help..
