Hi Damon, Have you tried your application on 1.4 beta 3 yet? I believe that beta2 was missing support for the 25-bit format we use for transparent images in most Graphics Configurations. That should help with your transparent performance numbers quite a lot.
1.4 beta 3 also has much better support for scaling Volatile and transparently accelerated offscreen and toolkit images... ...jim =========================================================================== To unsubscribe, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] and include in the body of the message "signoff JAVA2D-INTEREST".
