Hi, Robert

The answer is that it depends, sad to say.  GDI+ will be used in some
places while GDI will be used in others.  GDI takes advantage of hardware
accelleration while GDI+ does not.  I do not have information on which
feature uses which technology.

A better place to follow up if you need to would be in the
microsoft.public.dotnet.framework.drawing.  It's not on the managed list,
but the developers monitor it to some degree.

Thank you for choosing the MSDN Managed Newsgroups,
