> Also, is there any way to get fonts used with the textout() function > to be transparent? Ummm, there is a font library around which does this (I think) but I can't remember what it's called. Can't even tell you if it's linked from the Allegro Homepage. Sorry. My method for transparent fonts creates a BITMAP big enough to hold the string, then blit it to the screen using draw_trans_sprite. If you want to find the minimum size for the BITMAP to be, use the text_length and text_height commands. James Arthur - jaa AT arfa DOT clara DOT net http://www.arfa.clara.net/james/ ICQ#15054819
