is it related to Freetype or Athens?
Hi there, A Dr. Geo user on Ubuntu 64bits 16.04 got that buggy rendering of the canvas, then on some situation the rendering completely stop on a red screen, with a stack showing may be a zero divide error. I did not get access to the PharoDebog yet. Fonts on the screenshot is not right too. Could it be a mixed problem between FreeType and Cairo? Any first though on the issue welcome. Given the fact Dr. Geo is still based on Pharo3 and it works pretty fine on my old Ubuntu 12.07 derived system, it may be time to port the newer Pharo6. Congrats for the Pharo6 release.

Hilaire If I remember correcly, there is a bug in cairo so igor was sometimes forced to change the font size multiplying a little to force the plugin to react. Stef On Tue, Jun 6, 2017 at 7:33 PM, Hilaire <hilaire@drgeo.eu> wrote:

There were couple GC/memory related issues in the VM's plugin, that were fixed or worked around in the Pharo 6 VM that apparently were present for a long time... so maybe that's also part of what you've experienced...
Another good reason to migrate Dr. Geo to Pharo 6 ;) Le 07/06/2017 à 21:53, Peter Uhnak a écrit :
