[Gvsig_english] gvSIG 1.9 (1243) some issues regarding the latest version

[roser]

Hi Wolfgang, sorry for answering so late, I wasn't here yesterday

I reported the bug to the developers including your log and screenshot, 
and another bug that I found when testing yours, I hope it gets fixed soon.
And for the other bugs although I couldn't reproduce them, They've told 
me that they are going to have a look at them, so it's just a matter of 
time.

Best regards
roser
