I'm sorry to be so dense...but this information doesn't tell me anything. If I draw in 160x160 coordinates, will the actual DRAWING take place in hi-res? WHen I call WinDrawChars, for example, will it then draw the font in a hi-res font even though I'm using 160x160 coordinates? Or, do I have to set the screen density, and then double the coordinates??? Of course, does this make the font, then, half the original size instead of just hi-res version of the same on-screen size? Same thing for WinDrawLine...If I tell it to draw from 0,0 to 160,160, will it draw in 2x2 sized pixels on hi-res displays unless I set the screen coordinates to double-density? Or, since I created an off-screen bitmap of native format...will it automatically draw the line as I want...which is 1x1 pixel segments? I would prefer to NOT have to conditionally double every coordinate if I don't have to. I'd rather just be able to keep my code as is in terms of drawing, but have hi-res screens take advantage of the hi-resolution! But, I can't figure that out. >>I'm not double-buffering.

Well, that shows you how much I know about graphics programming! :-) >If you look in the OS companion #1 under "Offscreen Windows" (about p.91 >in the pdf) and in the API reference for WinCreateOffscreenWindow and >WindowFormatType, it actually does explain all I did. Yes...but, what you have explained so far hasn't really told me much...and neither does the companion doc. I'll re-read it yet again, though, in light of these conversations to see if anything makes more sense to me. BTW, I'm sorry if I sound like I'm picking on you...I'm not really. I appreciate all the help I can get. It's just so far, I haven't received anything that makes any sense TO ME. Examples would be nice, if I knew where to find some. Thanks.
