Charts in OS X

[Rudye McGlothlin]

Hi David,

On my system the colors seem to be messed up, but only for the  
charts.  The register and icons are all fine.  Take the Net Worth Bar  
Chart.  I get weird red and blue outlines to the axis numbers and  
titles, but no axis and no actual chart.  It is just white in the  
middle.  On the other hand, the Expense Pie Chart, which has a lot of  
segments, I get a chart.  But the colors are pale and washed out.   
The legend, title, and borders are all the red and blue outline  
instead of proper text.

I just finished an upgrade trying to fix this problem.  Now, I'm  
running Gnucash 2.2.1 r16462.  I installed it via Macports.  And I'm  
running OS X 10.4.11 on a PowerBook G4.  I'm not getting any error  
messages.

I had to set up a lot of symbolic links to get Gnucash to recognize  
Guile16 as Guile.  It took a lot of head-wall interaction to get it  
worked out, but once I did the installation went smoothly.

Last night, I also installed Gnumeric to see if chart worked in  
that.  Don't they use the same library functions?  As far as I can  
tell, the charts work fine in that program.

Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Regards,
Rudye
