	Hi there I am using an image from my resouces as a flowchart background as such: flowChart.BackgroundImage = Properties.Resources.background2; unfortunately it is rendering as slightly blurred in comparison to the original image, and when tiled it is not lining up correctly, any suggestions? p.s. the image is a .png

	Hi, FlowChart.NET honors the DPI attribute stored in the image metadata, and will stretch the image if its DPI is different than the screen DPI. The screen's resolution usually is 96 DPI; you can see what the resolution of the image is in the Summary\Advanced property page of the file. Stoyan

	Ok that seems to have fixed the image display when untiled, but when tiled it is now distorting in a similar fashion as before when using this code: Code flowChart.BackgroundImageLayout = ImageLayout.None; flowChart.BkgrImagePos = ImageAlign.Tile; are these the correct layout parameters? strange it requires 96 dpi for this background when all our other graphics are displaying fine as 72 dpi PNGs

	I'm not sure what BackgroundImageLayout does, I guess it's something that comes from the Control class. Could you email me that image so I can see what exactly happens? By other graphics - do you mean ones displayed in boxes? The box images are just stretched to the box BoundingRect size, so their DPI setting is ignored. Stoyan
