>I understand. But in my case, I preferred to keep using GdiPlusX, as I'm used to it and I find it easier to use :-). Basically they do exactly the same. You can even use GdiPlusX objects in _gdiplus.vcx. That means that you can use GdiPlusX to create a gradient brush or a matrix or a special pen or brush and send this object as a parameter to GdiPlus.vcx, and they will work fine together ! To make this possible, we made some simple adaptations in GdiPlusX to make its objects compatible with the old gdi+ classes. If you need to go deeper on this, let me know.

Yes, I'm interested in this. But my weekend starts within the minute so we better do next week.

I spend a while figuring out that it will actually turns the area not the pen. But I could remember the days of me programming industrial robots, so it wasn't that far.

Have nice Day

>>I've tried around GdiPlusX but in the end I've used the _gdiplus.vcx that ships with vfp. This is because I do small changes to the reportlistener app, and thisone loades the _gdiplus.vcx anyway. But for testing it was great (Could copy easier from the web). All my knowlegde is from GDIPlusX and the I transformed to _gdiplus.vcx. I would have used GDIPlusX but the other one was there. ::(

>>Anyway, since I haven't had time to do deep work with gdi+ could you answer me a question. Do I understand right that things like RotateTransform and TranslateTransform turn and move the the area I work with? To me it looks like that TranslateTransform moves the point of origin and the RotateTransform turns the area around that point. So if I do not "reset" those actions I end up with all things before RotateTransform rotate negative?
