wine users - Jul 2008 - Macromedia FreeHand MX on Wine, doesn't create new document

Hello.

I have installed Macromedia FreeHand MX under Wine 1.1.1 on Arch Linux.
It installs OK, but I can't create a new document.

When I go on File => New it gives an error ("Could not complete your
request because an error occurred") and then Wine dies with a
segmentation fault.

Final words from Wine before dying:

 [22:39:44] [renan at sanctuary:~/.wine/drive_c/Arquivos de
programas/Macromedia/FreeHand MX]$ wine FreeHand\ MX.exe

ALSA lib seq_hw.c:457:(snd_seq_hw_open) open /dev/snd/seq failed:
Arquivo ou diret?rio n?o encontrado

wine: Call from 0x7ee149a0 to unimplemented function
gdiplus.dll.GdipResetClip, aborting
Falha de segmenta??o


Any suggestions? FH is one of the few programs that make me keep
having a Windows VM.


Thank you!

Solved problem by copying GDIPLUS.DLL from Windows XP install to Wine. 
Now it works, but has a few glitches (namely, sometimes the toolbox 
"gets behind" the main window); can live with them, though.

You should open a bug report on bugzilla titled "Call to unimplemented
function
gdiplus.dll.GdipResetClip", in the summary mention that it occurs with
Macromedia FreeHand MX and attach the log, provide an URL for download too if a
demo exists.
