Cesar,
System.PRG is missing in the ZIP.
Where I could found it?

>I've been working on the improvement of the image control, basically in order to fix the PictureVal bugs, and to add some cool and new functions.
>
>At the link below you can download one of the first versions of a prototype
>It's very primitive yet, but it can show you what I want to achieve.

>I'm based in Craig Boyd's article published in FoxTalk some years ago.
>It contains a VCX that is only a place holder, and contains the methods and properties that i need.
>In the SCX, you'll find all the codes responsible for the image rendering.
>
>Please run the file TESTIMAGEX2.scx, to understand what I made so far.
>
>There are really few people that have tried this before, and I trust very much in your opinions regarding this.
>
>The main issue problem is the flickering when the form is resized.
>
>For this class, I didn't use the API BeginPaint. All I did was to call "Thisform.Draw" to make VFP redraw its controls.
>
>During resize, to avoid the flickering, I thought of UNBINDING the WM_PAINT Windows event, and then call BeginPaint and then Thisform.Draw(), and after this is finished, Bind the WM_PAINT event again...
>
>But in my first insight this did not work.
>
>Do you have any suggestions regarding this ?
>
>This version uses a VFP Container as placeHolder.
>For the future, I want to use the original Image Object. If the Picture property is not empty, then it will behave as it should by default.
>Then, BINDEVENT the PictureVal property, and for the case it receives a value, then my control would manage the images.

>Thanks in advance for any suggestions or feedback !
