I used WGSavePageMeta on a QCPageView with multiple graphs (QCRTGraphWnd) in it. The resulting meta file contains only the graph last added to the page in BuildPage. Is this a bug? Is a workaround known? Or do I have to query the graph separately and assemble my meta file manually?

Thanks for every hint...

That sounds like an old bug. When did you purchase the software and what is the date of your WCT32DR3.DLL file.

The WCT32DR3.DLL is dated April 12th 1999. Is there an update available? It seems to be revision 3.0 which I have installed??
The software was purchased by a colleague who has left the company. Unfortunately nobody is here to ask for details, since we have official holiday today here in Germany.

There seems to be another problem with WGSavePageMeta. The saved metafile seems to be locked for other processes until the application exits. This is not so nice because the user may choose to use another program to work on the metafile while the application is still running. At least in my case...

But perhaps this is an old problem too?

That was also a bug fixed many years ago. We have sent you the current WCT32DR3.DLL.

You should only use a Windows placeable metafile, the MF_PL metafile type in the WGSavePageMeta function. The MF_ENH type does not work reliably.
