----------------------------------- aqazwsx1 Sun Jan 11, 2009 11:34 am strings on backgrounds ----------------------------------- How can you put strings on a picture background (JPG) .I try to do that but the strings erase my background. Is there a way to show put statements on the a background picture without erasing it not using font.draw ? Thanks in advance! ----------------------------------- syntax_error Sun Jan 11, 2009 11:37 am RE:strings on backgrounds ----------------------------------- Why do you not want to use font.draw? ----------------------------------- Euphoracle Sun Jan 11, 2009 11:45 am RE:strings on backgrounds ----------------------------------- No, there isn't. However, you can write a wrapper for it, so you don't need to worry about positioning Font.Draw all the time. ----------------------------------- aqazwsx1 Sun Jan 11, 2009 12:47 pm Re: strings on backgrounds ----------------------------------- what do you mean?

A wrapper is a helpful function that "wraps around" another function call (while setting up default arguments, or doing some other useful work), making it easier to work with that wrapped call.
