Problem with GraphicsUnit using GDI

Hi,

I have a jpg that i am using asa template using GDI to draw on.

I am using paint to look at the jpg and using pixels to determine
where I want to draw to with GDI.

I changed the graphics unit to pixels like this.

e.Graphics.Page Unit = GraphicsUnit.Pi xel;

But when I draw it is not pixels. I found that I have to multiply
by 3.6 roughly to get the same distance in pixels.

So I did that and after I deployed my app the print preview of
the document is all squashed up.

Any ideas???

Hi All, As I recall from Java Swing, I could assign the widths of columns to something like a list control proportionally rather than absolutely. That is, essentially I could assign "weights" x, y and z to the columns respectively of a three-column list control; at run time, the system would calculate the available space for the control and, given that w was determined to be the absolute width of the control, would assign w*x /...

Hi, I found a piece of code to add drop shadow to a photo like below, after I save the image, it is actually a BMP file even though I specify a JPG file extension (see http://img140.imageshack.us/my.php?image=resized11wz.jpg). If I force to save in JPG format (see the commented line), then the whole shadow is a messup (see http://img70.imageshack.us/my.php?image=resized29cy.jpg).
