Have you tried the Line statement?

Line x1, y1, x2, y2, colour (can use QBColour() func), something, B (box) or BF (Filled box)

Sorry its been a while since i programmed in VB but:

Line 0, 0, Me.ScaleWidth, Me.ScaleHeight, RGB(255, 255, 0), , BF

as i remember fills the screen to yellow

i forgot... There is also:

Circle x, y, raduis, colour

You can also use win32 api functions as these will offer better performance. This is because VB Refreshed the graphics after every GFX statement. Try drawing a square by drawing horizontal lines, then by drawing a diagonal with the BF option. You will see the difference. By using win32 api calls you can draw all your graphics then refresh the graphics. The graphics system is one of my reasons for learning other languages than VB :(

Learn to use the DRAW command and you can make ANYTHING!

try these codes. it gives your project a really cool effect.

Private Sub Form_Click()
While 1
For i = 0 To 10 Step 0.001
DoEvents
Circle (Me.Width / 2 + Sin(i) * 2000, Me.Height / 2 + Cos(i) * 2000), 3000, i * j * 1000 + 30
Next
j = j + 100
Wend
End Sub

Good Luck!!
