Hello Larry

VeeCAD is full of design decisions made 19 years ago, and component text was "bolted on" later. By using a fixed pitch font and size, the code can calculate where to draw text, and what to redraw underneath the text.

These days a fancy graphics library would handle this, but in 2003 the program had to work on 100MHz Pentiums. We need a clever programmer to come along and create a brand new VeeCAD without the limitations.

So, for now, the text is the best I can do.
