Hello !

Under the authorization of Alexander Golovlev, and with his help and support, I added some functions to the original GPIMAGE class published here in UT.

Basically we included a GRAPHICS class.
New Methods included let you draw rectangles, lines, ellipsis, pies, strings and pictures on images. Brings the possibility to control alignment, size, orientation, rotation, of any shape, text or picture.
It is possible to work with image attributes too, changing colors of images, eg convert to B&W or greyscale, increase a color, etc.

This class is based on GDI+ and requires gdiplus.dll which is freely available and can be installed on Win98 and higher. If you have not installed WinXP or .NET runtime then you can download this DLL from
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=6a63ab9c-df12-4d41-933c-be590feaa05a&DisplayLang=en

The correct link for the enhanced class GPIMAGE that deals with gdiplus.dll is :

There you can find also a FAQS link, with many examples of use with the class.
Download the class, and open the EXAMPLES folder, where you can find many small PRGs and SCXs dealing with the class.

Works with VFP7, 8 and 9.
Maybe works fine with VFP6 also, but have not tried.

Regards

Cesar Chalom
