Last but not least... For 2008 you'll need GDIPLUS (IIRC....) and anyways many stuffs are broken. And, it's also slower than 2005, without bringing too many advantages... Directx acceleration works but it's slower than with no accel, so better disable it. Directx is a crap that microsoft invented to tie programmers to windows, as .NET. Much better use an autocad version that supports WELL opengl. Ciao Max
