Re: FreeHand MX
It's not supported, but I imagine it will run.
Although, there probably aren't a lot of FreeHand MX users left around to confirm this for you

Re: FreeHand MX
I use it in Leonard all the time for quick graphics work. (Far be it from me to say that Adobe$oft Sillystrator has become an over-bloated piece of crap!). It (Freehand) works just fine, it's fast and all the functionality is there... apart from one bizarre thing.
If you scroll down a document using a mouse's scroll wheel it acts in reverse of the way it should - up is down, down is up!!

Glad to hear someone else has this problem. I thought there was something wrong with my setup!
I wish FreeHand could be acquired by a software company that could ratchet it back a few versions--to where it was before before Macromedia tried to "improve" it by making it more like Illustrator--and put it back on the market,
