dd 2.1.0 does not handle text fit as expected
dd 2.1.0 does not handle text fit as expected
try the following file in autocad and in the odamfcapp.exe. even if the font is unknown and replaced by autocad, the text is stretched to fit between the two points. in odamfcapp.exe it is not fit between the two points. instead it appears too long.
should not a fit justified text always appear between the justification points? a bug in dd 2.1.0?
attached files
if the font exists i can't reproduce this in odamfcapp 2.1
if font does not exist autocad does not adjust the text to fit while loading dwg. it adjusts the text only after loading dxf.

what you say is correct. and it turned out to be a font substitution problem. after implementing getfontmapfilename() properly the drawing now displays the same result as in autocad.
however, in the process i discovered that oddbhostappservices and oddbhostappprogressmeter have changed argument types for many of their virtual functions. the compiler cannot warn you about that. so our overrides of functions in exhostappservices (and oddbhostappservices, oddbhostappprogressmeter) now were essentially different functions and were just not called anymore! the program would still work (calling the default implementations), but warning messages, progress meter, path searching etc did not work as before in our program.
it was my fault not to check this out. but it is easily missed and i think others migrating from dd 1.1.4 to dd 2.x should doublecheck this code if their programs behave differently from their dd 1.1.4 based versions.
