To be more specific, I have created a Canvas Gadget, onto which I have trapped the Irrlicht render, I had assumed therefore that if I passed the Canvas handle to setgraphics then I could simply draw ontop of this render. However I need the "Flip" to say the drawingcommnads are finished. And on this flip the Irrlicht render is flipped out. (Or rather the driver draws a whole new frame which is different from the Irrlicht render)

Obviously it doesnt work as I wanted it to. HOWEVER it is working just the way Skid, angel and Gman said it would. (In different threads)

Just means Ill have to start to learn the irrlicht 2d text stuff. (Or...... capture the irrlicht render to an image, and draw that behind the max2d stuff... but that would e slow wouldnt it?)
