I've installed "sforzando" (https://www.plogue.com/products/sforzando.html) on PlayOnLinux, however when I run the program, it's giving me this error: "This requires the use of Direct2D and either your graphics card or your Windows installation has no support for it." When I click "OK" to this dialog box prompt, the program does start, however it's a blank screen. Can anyone tell me what I need to do to get this program working? Here are my system specs:
Here is my PlayOnLinux debugger output:

This is interesting, I did install "Wine-Stable" and all of its dependencies in my Software Manager and it says it's installed. - Q4wine Please advise. Thanks.

Into a terminal, please type : 'wine --version' and give the result. What is your OS ? |

Wine v3.0 was release in 2015 or 2016.
I made this script, but there is critical KNOWN ISSUES (to read in the script) that make the software almost useless.
