Picture1.pset(x,y) won't produce an unbroken line

[maudie]

code:
MouseDown
Paintnow = True

MouseMove
Picture1.pset(x,y)

mouseUp
Paintnow = False

With a narrow drawwidth this produces a broken line on anything but very slow mousemovements.

Is there a way around this ?

Becasue MouseMove is not triggered for every pixel movement of the mouse. However "interupt based" the mouse movement is, Windows is not a real time OS!, and it has otherthings to do as well!!

What you can do is draw small line segments each time you get a MouseMove event. (from your prev. point) You will atleast get a continuous line, if not a all-too-smooth line :-)
