What if you had two gifs containing diagnal lines in a transarent image.
\ and /
10 pixels by 10 pixels.
First, decide whether the slope is positive or negative.
Then, just set the image display size to the rise and run of your needed slope, and you have a diagnal line.
(This assumes you dont need to draw anything under the slope.)
Just a thought.

You might look into SVG. It's an XML-based vector graphics plugin, somewhat
similar to Flash. However, since it's all XML, it's a snap to generate with
CF. My company uses it internally for graphing and plotting all kinds of
stuff. The only downside is that the plugin is over 2MB, but that's a one
time cost.

Subject: Drawing diagonal lines
I am using html and CF to dynamically draw rectangular wall modules
based upon user input. I am using a scale of 1.5 pixels = 1 inch. I really
would like to come up with a way of displaying the roof slope as well,
but have been unsuccessful so far in drawing a diagonal line that I
can display on the screen as well as send to the printer. I failed in my
attempts to use dhtml layers as it displayed properly on the screen, but
printed incorrectly.
If anyone could offer some suggestions I would appreciate it.
