Hello Austin,

As per your above suggestion, I proceeded to replace the windows gdiplus.dll
with an empty file with the same name.

An error message occurred with the statement:
"gdiplus.dll is either missing or not working because of a system configuration
problem. Some display smoothing functionality will be unavailable."

However, upon quick testing of the program, Sibelius now runs smoother with the
built-in WINE dll. Click-and-Drag is much more responsive, as is shifting
titles/text around.

Three cheers for an excellent (and legal) workaround. Would the "missing" dll
be a suitable candidate for bugzilla for inclusion in the next WINE version?
