This is my first posting to this newsgroup. I am just getting started with the toolbox and THINK C. I am writing a small program that draws a polygon ( a triangle) and then saves it to the clipboard. The polygon is drawn fine and it appears to save it to the clipboard. After exiting the program and returning to the finder, I try to check the clipboard. The top line of the window says " Clipboard contents: Picture. The problem is my polygon is a polyGONE (it's missing)! Any clues for a greenhorn? Thanks in advance. -tom davey

You didn't read the "Programmers One-liners" section of the Usenet Macintosh Programmers Guide before you posted this question did you? :-) I think you are being bit by the Cliprect bug. You need to set the cliprect to the rect of your window (or some other reasonable value). Thats my first guess.
