Once a large spreadsheet is pasted into a design
file, it can be viewed properly in releases prior to
OpenPlant PID v8.1. However, if
you update the link while in any of the prior versions, the spreadsheet is
truncated or clipped according to limitation mentioned previously. Depending on
the type of metafile being used, the image may not look correct when pasted.
There can be two formats (Windows Metafile and
Enhances Metafile) of drawing commands in the Windows Clipboard at the same
time. Windows automatically converts from one format to the other.
Occasionally, the conversion from
"Windows Metafile" to
"Enhances Metafile" produces an image that
does not display properly.
OpenPlant PID can use either
drawing format that is in the clipboard. However, there is no way for
OpenPlant PID to determine which
format is the original format and which is the synthesized format.
Consequently, you must tell
OpenPlant PID which format it
should use when creating OLE objects from the Windows Clipboard. The
configuration variable
MS_OLECNTR_CONFIG_ALLOWEMF
specifies the format that
OpenPlant PID will use.
