I'd like to use GDI+ antialiased functions in a TDrawgrid. Is this possible? or does GDI+ require a different Canvas meaning I would need a new TDrawGrid? Also, which GDI+ components would you recommend? Many thanks, CB Back to top GrandmasterB Guest Posted: Mon Mar 26, 2007 11:55 pm    Post subject: Re: GDI+ in TDrawGrid?

Is this possible? or does GDI+ require a different Canvas meaning I would need a new TDrawGrid? Yes, there's no problem doing this. Just use gdi+ in the paint routines instead of normal gdi commands. Create a GDI+ Graphics object with the canvas's handle (which is the HDC). Back to top Herre de Jonge Guest Posted: Wed Mar 28, 2007 4:38 pm    Post subject: Re: GDI+ in TDrawGrid? Charles, Just download the GDI+ port from http://www.progdigy.com/modules.php?name=gdiplus You can start drawing on a Delphi canvas (TCanvas) by creating a TGPGraphics objects based on this canvas: gfx := TGPGraphics.Create(Canvas.Handle); Try to find gdicpp.chm, because it's quite nice to have this help file as a reference.

Thanks, but that doesn't seem to compile with D2005 (maybe the Directdraw.pas needs updating) and it is GPL/MPL stuff (I'm doing a comercial development). Any freeware stuff you know of?

Look for the Jedi version of the gdi+ headers. Those compiled ok under turbodelphi for me. As for the GPL thing, that I cant help you with.

Quote: Also, which GDI+ components would you recommend? Not a one. Not only because I don't know of any reliable components but also because I don't know what your needs are. I would suggest that you explain in detail what it is that you want to accomplish. In addition, google for Michel Leunen or visit his sight at: http://www.leunen.com/ He's got the best grip on GDI+ that I've seen (even if it is C++). ~ JD Back to top Eddie Lotter Guest Posted: Sun Apr 08, 2007 8:24 pm    Post subject: Re: GDI+ in TDrawGrid?
