Hi folks,

Two graphics related questions:

1. DOS question:
   I have an application in DOS where I select an icon from a palette
   and place it on a screen. After the icon is placed on the canvas,
   pixels under the graphics mouse cursor disappear. Why does this 
   happen and what is the fix ? Using 386 and VGA.

2. GENERAL GRAPHICS question:
   Are there any conventions for representing "draggable" icons ? Should
   they show up as simple line drawings or can they show up as buttons
   with simulated depth ? The idea would be to "press" the selected icon
   button while it was selected.

Thanks,
Jimmy
