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.
