>>>For shapes, you have to define a PolyPoint array and that's what will be rotated, not the "shape" but the shape defined by the polypoints.

>>Why can't things just be simple. You put a rectangle on a form and you rotate it. Oh, well PolyPoints for 100 dining room tables it is, that is unless you are going to tell me that I can't have 100 arrays.

>I made an interesting discovery in playing with the PolyPoints. I'm not sure why, but I thought they were an absolute measurement, like pixels or something. Turns out they're a percentage of the size of the shape dimensions. Made an analog clock just to play around with them a bit and the rotation.
I think it is very interesting that it is in percentaje of the size. The first thing I did with VFP 9 Beta as soon as We downloaded it, was to play with polypoints, making a dynamic and resizable Pie Chart, which was pretty easy thanks to this fact
