Hi Chris, I think this pretty much ought to work, at least with fltk-1.3.x. What version are you using? Anyway, take a look at the unittests demo from the test folder,one of the tabs there is about image blending and such (IIRC the tab is titled "drawing images". Does that work on your system? ISTR it maybe only works on W32 and OSX, not sure about X11... Anyway, the code for that tab is in the file unittest_images.cxx, so that might yeild some clues! _______________________________________________ fltk mailing list fltk@easysw.com http://lists.easysw.com/mailman/listinfo/fltk
