Bob, unfortunately not. Printing to off-screen bitmaps is one of the few features that seem to be missing from the graphics drivers compared to other computers' windowing systems. Up to now, I was always fortunate enough to be able to hide such activity in a "loading screen". (I.e. mis-use the load screen to do the print-to-bitmap activity) Tobias _______________________________________________ QL-Users Mailing List http://www.q-v-d.demon.co.uk/smsqe.htm
