Thanks Hack - LOL :rolleyes:

Now, would you mind explaning your answer? What the heck does that mean? :)

Copy graphics (or parts of them) from one window to another, from one graphics object to another.

You certainly asked your question in the right forum section. These guys/gals know more about this than I. The explanation I gave it straight out of the API viewer.

I did find this, however, and it might help in your understanding.

BitBlt Tutorial

I always enjoy getting the message that says you have responded to my post Jim. I know I'll get good information. Thanks. :D

I guess you are ok too Hack - I filed away that tutorial to go over when I have some time.

Thanks

Your faith in me is underwhelming Sue. :D

Is there a blit function to capture iregular shapes?
Also, Is there a way to "bend" a blitted image as a parellellagram or even better - as an arc?
