>Someone (not Calvin) at one of the conferences (Ft. Lauderdale, I think) mentioned that polygon are "just a call to that API function, PolyDraw". You can do this today using the Windows GDI API. In fact, my struct class contains a sample that draws polygons onto the form.

>The only issue is what I've also described in my struct class documentation: The paint event is not firing as you would need it to draw the form when another application has been activated on top of yours. The reason is that VFP doesn't paint controls in the foreground when a WM_PAINT message arives, rather it draws them as the background when it receives a WM_ERASEBKGND message. There's no event in vFP that fires in this case, though.
