[Gambas-user] Drawing Area

[EA7DFH]

Hi

Doriano, I think there is no need to use Draw.Begin and Draw.End when
drawings are triggered within the _Draw event. Good introduction, BTW.

I'm not used to work with this event, what leads me to ask how to draw
directly to a printer using this event, if possible at least.

Regards,
Jesús
