Hi Alejandro,
Here's how I would approach it. (Assuming the Vector graphic is NOT
anti-aliased, which should be correct because MC can't render vectors
antialiased)
1) Create your vector graphic
2) Convert it to a bitmap with import snapshot the rect of the graphic (be
sure to use the window ID)
Unfortunately it is sooner rather than later. I need it for a program
I am currently working on.
Thanks,
