Bugs/regression with linePattern in Drawing module

[genev]

There are several bugs in the way linePattern property is handled.

Issue #1: Shapes can only be drawn with solid lines.

This can be reproduced by modifying this example: http://www.smartclient.com/docs/8.2/...l#ShapeGallery

 
isc.DrawOval.create({
    autoDraw: true,
    drawPane: mainPane,
    left: 50,
    top: 300,
    width: 100,
    height: 100,
    canDrag:true,  
    linePattern:"shortdash"
});

Adding linePattern:"shortdash" has no effect, the circle is still drawn with the solid line.
This used to work in 7RC2 and 8.0.

SmartClient 8.2 Pro.
Browsers: Chrome 16, FF9, IE7.
-----------------------------------------------------------

Issue #2: Dynamically changing line pattern to anything other than solid pattern sometimes causes broken lines on non-MS browsers.
Please see the attachments that demonstrate the problem.
When the line style is solid, the radial lines are straight. When the line pattern is dashed/shortdash, etc, most of the lines become contorted.

The code below is being called when user changes the line pattern value:

var xyStart = new Array(2), xyEnd=new Array(2);
for(var i=1; i<13; i++){
	item = dp1.drawItems[i];
	xyStart=pointOnCirlce((i-1)*30, inner_circle, centerX, centerY, 0);
	xyEnd = pointOnCirlce((i-1)*30, outer_circle, centerX, centerY, 0);

        item.setStartPoint(xyStart[0], xyStart[1]);
	item.setEndPoint(xyEnd[0], xyEnd[1]);
	item.setLineColor(lineColor);
	item.setLinePattern(linePattern);
	item.setLineWidth(lineWidth);
}

This second issue is reproducible on FF9, Chrome 16, Maxthon 3, and on Safari 5.1.2. But it works fine on IE7.

3. There is one more issue: in the DrawLabel contents string all unicode characters are drawn as hex strings (such as "& #9792;") instead of being shown as actual characters. This is reproducible on all major browsers with SmartClient pro 8.2.

Any chance any of those issues will be fixed in 8.3 release?

#3 may be a native limitation of <canvas>. What browser(s) are you seeing this in?

Please check #1 / #2 against 8.3d (see smartclient.com/builds).

Issue #1: Shapes can only be drawn with solid lines. - it's still reproducible with SmartClient_v83p_2013-01-21_Pro.

Issue #2 is fixed.
