So? It's always been that way. Same for pictures loaded from disc (on the Mac). These are PICTs, which are vector images (even if they happen to contain only a pixel map), and a vector image can't have a graphics context. What makes you think this is "broken"? > So if you are depending on using > pictures from the clipboard, don't use 2006r4. Nonsense. If you want to draw into them, just make your own pixel map (NewPicture) of the desired size, draw the picture into it, and then do your own drawing on top. It has never been guaranteed (nor actually true, in most cases) that a picture will have a non-nil graphics object unless you created it yourself with NewPicture.
