	Hi, We could not see any good reason to make it public. The internal CreateGraphics is only a helper method that creates a Graphics object used for some measurements. If you need to draw on the bitmap created by CreateBitmap, use the static Graphics.FromImage method. It returns a Graphics object whose methods when invoked draw on the specified bitmap image.

	Hi, The first, I knew CreateGraphics() is a helper method in WebChart now. But it is public in FlowChart. Why I cannot use them in same way? ??? In FlowChat, I use CreateGraphics to get Graphics object to measure string's size. But I can not use it in WebChart. It doesn't make sense. The second, that is your promise that you'll make that public in next version (please reference your previous reply). Do you forget it? I am waiting for this version a long time. Why does it still miss there? ??? - Erison

	The method is public in FlowChart.NET because the FlowChart class inherits it from Control. In WebChart.dll that method is not inherited but our developers added it to help them reuse the measurements code from Flowchart.dll. All CreateGraphics does is call Graphics.FromImage, so we have decided it does not add any value to the API. Anyway we will send you a build of the dll where the method is public. Stoyan
