Nono ! This no longer an officially approved by Apple way to optimize a program. Line is faster than LineTo, but the method of creating your own BitMap (One bit deep) is far better. Or, if you have the memory, use EIGHT BIT DEEP pixmaps. This makes for FAST code (No shifting and things) >Sean Parent h+@nada.kth.se -- This is your fortune from h+@nada.kth.se: Life is what happens to you while you are planning to do something else.
