Hmm. after updating to get your fix and "make cairo" I still get the same (bad) result (with page 1 still visible underneath) for examples/c/x02c -dev xcairo -bg 0000FF_0.1 examples/c/x02c -dev qtwidget -bg 0000FF_01 was fine. I haven't tried a completely clean build yet, but "make cairo" did create a new cairo device driver so your fix should be properly built. Do you currently get good results for the above test with -dev xcairo? Alan __________________________ Alan W.
