Im working on a little graphics app and Im adding Zoom capabilities which of course requires a magnifying glass>> Can someone tell me whats involved ....or where I might find an example of this.... Thanks a lot.

Well I made my initial post when I first discovered the problem .At my fist observation it really seemed to be quite a problem..After a little though I figured a way to do what I needed but in fact What I was planning wasnt even necisarry at all.Once I began coding the app I found the problem was no problem at all...For each menu item handler I use DoModal and upon its return I assign the corresponding objects variables...Although a little inneficient it works just fine.. Thanks for the help I really appreciate all the help I can get and Ill probably need more help with this app which is probably a little too ambitious for me at this point.

Although this sounds good Im still not to clear on how this is done..Thanks for the hint Ill investigate it further..

Well In fact I did solve the problem with the CArray and again Im sorry for the poorly written post I was a little mindboggled last night!!! I have a class whose constructor is as follows JPoint(CPoint CP, int state, int Ptool); This is the object I needed an array of.. In a SetCoordinates function I had code similar to this: FixedMap.Add(JPoint((100,100),0,1)); Still a newbee I assumed that (100,100) would be assumed to be the CPoint required by the JPoint constructor; And the fact I recieved no compiler errors lead me to beleive it should work. But when it came draw the points in another function nothing was displayed... The problem was not prefixing (100,100) with CPoint as follows FixedMap.Add(JPoint(CPoint(100,100),0,1)); Shouldve known better right???

I have a program which will generate Images of different objects on the screen.If you choose a menu item (RSC,Folder for example) you are promted to enter a few parametrs related to the object.(Length,Width,Depth and flute) Since all of the objects need the same info I want to use one single dialog.However Each object manipulates the info in different ways..With a single dialog and hence a single "Render" button how can I determine Which object the dialog was called for in my OnRender Function...Is what Im trying to do possible???It has to be this is C++ :o). Any suggestions or hints would be greatly appreciated... Thanks for the time J.Prisco

Im working on a little program that does on command drawing eventually plotting / cutting (Very lucky to have opportunity to experiment on high tech peice of machinary :o) )I had a program thatused a CArray collection but I need to have another two variables in a adition to a point. I tried using a class which had all neccissary variables and then tried to use it in a simar type collection but this didnt work. How should I go about this??? CObArray?? I need to be able to 'add'Items and then read items sequentially. thanks for the time

I need a process to be repeated so long as the mouse button is down.What condition should i test for in my loop
