So you are in ResEdit and you have got this neat little cube of graphics about 1 inch by 1 inch pasted in the scrapbook. How do you get it pasted to the current window in your program ? The problem that I am having is pulling the text in a PICT and knowing how big to make a rect to draw it in, I think ???? When I copy that image from the scrapbook to the PICT resource does it grab the whole screen even though there is only a little tiny piece of graphics in there.. I guess I am confusing myself... If anybody could show me the light I would really appreciate it... If it is really conplex and I have to figure it out on my own, OK. It just seems like I am on the wrong path to a simple problem .?.?.?.?. :-O (ooo noo its Mr Bill.) :-O Thanks in advance for any help.. - Dan Rubin

I assume you mean that the PICT rect that you want to display in a DITL is the wrong size. ResEdit has a menu item 'Use rsrc rect' (or something of the sort :-) If you select your DITL and then the menu, presto... the PICT will appear unscaled, the original size. -o

!!!! Could anyone who answers this plea please either email or use comp.sys.mac.programmer !!!! Can someone help me? I want to read a gray scale PICT file and use the resulting bit map from my offscreen. I can do all that up to a certain point; these two cases are the closest I can get: 1- All the colors are displayed correctly but the intesities are backwards ie 255-p(x,y) 2- All the colors are displayed correctly and all the numbers but 0&255 are correct. In this case black is 255 and white is 0 What I want is white(255)..(1)gray(254)..(255)black. I've tried to make my own off screen device and it works the way I want, that is until I make a PICT from that bitmap with CopyBits and print that PICT on a LaserWriter using the 6.0.2 driver. Everything prints correct but black and white are switched. But if I store that same PICT to a file or clipboard and read it into another program it displays correctly but when that program prints it it prints the same as my application. I hope someone can help me...Thanks Doug Norton Rome Laboratory internet: nortond@lonex.radc.af.mil
