There's a minor performance issue issue here. You are creating a solid black brush. That means when you do the Rectangle call, the graphics driver actually has to go draw the inside with black. Now, since you specified R2_XOR, that will have no effect on the pixels (since x ^ 0 is 0), but the graphics chip will still draw it. If you use the hollow brush, as I suggested, then the driver won't even be ASKED to fill the interior. brush = win32ui.GetStockObject( 5 ) # HOLLOW_BRUSH -- Tim Roberts, [EMAIL PROTECTED] Providenza & Boekelheide, Inc. _______________________________________________ Python-win32 mailing list Python-win32@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-win32
