Xlib backend does not support rotation. Last time I tried the semi-transparent masks in Xlib, Xlib gave different results than art and art looked much better. So I guess there are a few problems with Xlib graphics, too. I do hope that cairo backend will solve most or all the problems we have on Unix. --Tima _______________________________________________ Discuss-gnustep mailing list Discuss-gnustep@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss-gnustep
