Mike Sue-Ping shared an API gradient routine a few days back for images. I note things are getting retro - the images on our UT message dialog are 3d bevels agains. The font on the login are embossed bevels - I guess we're moving back to that 3D look (FPW) - and I was so enjoying the plain - soft - non 3D - themes.

I have not viewed the source - but it could be DIV property I am not aware of. Now how do we get DIV objects on our VFP forms?:-)

I will check the download - thanks

>Don't know if this help, but here in the download section it's a file called little Right corner, wich draws 3 points at the window in the embossed way you want. Take a look at it, it's doing it with API I think..
