GdPicture Imaging

[mhovens1]

I tried to test the GdImagebox activex control in the access-demo database using the demo license-key.
I copied the clipboard containing AutoCAD-data (WMF?/EMF? office format) from an Objectframe control in an Access-2003 Form.
When I paste the data into Excel, the vector-format-data is copied into Excel. The Picture then is fully scalable and not converted into a bitmap-format.
When I paste the same clipboard-content into the GdImagebox control the drawing is converted into bitmap-format.
Is it possible to retain the vector-format data by trying to import the data as Byte-Array in some way ?
Or do I need to use another activex-control to be able to retrieve and display the vector-content from the clipboard ?
My main goal is to be able to zoom in and pan using the picture under VBA-control within the Access-form. The Access objectframe doesn't do that. Within Excel enlarging and clipping the picture is possible, but for zooming into some detail-area of the drawing I do have to write quite a lot of VBA-code to accomplish that.

Can anybody give me some advice ?

Hi there,

Unfortunately we don't provide such feature. The control have been designed to render bitmap on screen. Therefore we need Bitmap structure as input.
The only similar feature we provide is included into GdPciture.NET. The GdViewer control is able to render an image in vector format "as is".

Kind regards,
