    Graphic problems, yet again...

    Ok I kind of, let me emphasize that KIND OF, got this down, i'm getting points drawn on my form anyway...

    How can I clear the form? Or even go further and possibly make what's drawn fade out to the background color, which is black.

    I included a zip of the exe of what I'm doing in VB, I want to convert this to c++ so it's faster and hopefully cooler. Since c++ can handle graphics much faster than VB.

    Any other suggestions are welcome since I am a newbie and c++ is much more difficult and complex than VB. If you do suggest something please include some source so I can *TRY* to use it.

    Thanks a lot!

    The math is the easy part, lol, making C++ work with it is difficult... I can get the points to appear using setpixelV with windows.h API set. But... I can get the BG color to change, and I have no idea how to clear it.

    I'm stuck!

    The source would help even more...

    did you try redrawing the window... with UpdateWindow() or RedrawWindow()?

    If you ever have time, I would be interested in learning more about the "math".

    I messed up the source... it doesn't work now... something about setpixelv being static or something.

    Is there anyway to put this in a console?

    It'd probably be better.

    *sigh*
