GDI+ Image Support (Animated .gif Files, RotateFlip Property)
Visual FoxPro replaces native support for rendering Graphics Interchange Format (.gif) and Joint Photographic Electronic Group (.jpeg) formats with Graphics Device Interface+ (GDI+), the next generation graphics device interface for Microsoft Windows XP and future releases of the Windows operating system.

With GDI+, you can now rotate and invert, or flip, an image by setting the RotateFlip property on the Image control.

For more information, see Graphics Support in Visual FoxPro, RotateFlip Property, Picture Property, and Open Picture Dialog Box.
