Why is it that gpr_$text ignores the Raster OP? How does one rubberband text without having to BLT to memory and back? I think I might've noticed once that gpr_$rectangle ignores ROP's also. Any insights into why some primitives ignore raster ops? Any reason why they should? I'm at 9.7, so if "it's fixed in sr10", I guess I'll have to live with it.

Any reason > why they should? You need to use gpr_$raster_op_prim_set. For some strange reason the default is that raster ops apply to lines and blts and not to fills (such as gpr_$rectangle and gpr_$circle_filled). This doesn't help you with text though. Tim
