I just insert the SendMessage_ .... after creating the EditorGadget. PB 6.04 now works fine.

Thanks for your input on this.

Not wanting to beat a dead horse, at least not too much, I do ask:

Presumably the Linux and IOS PB editions are unchanged and automatically render rtf when they see it. If it takes an API call to fix the Windows version, can the call be built into the EditorGadget?

...and the Windows version is ...

Many thanks, jacdelad. I totally missed that.
Thanks also for the quick reply!

With my track record, I am hesitant to call anything a bug, any more. But after a recent PB upgrade to 6.04 from 6.01, my RTF project suddenly stopped working.
