>From what I understand, it is impossible to ascertain the y-information in a single pass metrics call, right? So you need two metrics passes. Or rather, you need to split draw into a part that updates the x, y store and a part that draws on screen. What you could do is define a no-action painter and pass that to all the draw routines. Might be a quick way of ascertaining whether your strategy cures the problem. -- Angus
