Well, I think my problem is that I am not familiar enough with the graphic sub-systems of QNX to know what I want to do 
:).  Basically, I have some graphic artists that are providing me base .png files.   I need to draw an ellipse based on 
some dynamic data and save the result as another .png file.  So, whatever is the fastest to accomplish this would work 
for me.

I appreciate it if you have any suggestion or code snippet to help me get started.

Thanks,

Reza

Hi Joel,

I tried to use the direct pointer approach, but my system hangs.  Below is a code snipet where it hangs:
img_t	img_day;
if ((rc = img_lib_attach(&ilib)) != IMG_ERR_OK) {
			fprintf(stderr, "img_lib_attach() failed: %d\n", rc);
			return rc;
		}

img_day.flags = 0;
img_day.flags |= IMG_DIRECT;

// /tmp/stop.png is the location of the file on the target VM system
img_template_file_Day = "/tmp/stop.png";

// The code hangs after making the call below.  If I don't set the IMG_DIRECT flag, it works.
if ((rc = img_load_file(ilib, img_template_file_Day, NULL, &img_day)) != IMG_ERR_OK) {
fprintf(stderr, "img_load_file(%s) failed on Day Template: %d\n", img_template_file_Day, rc);
			// return rc;
		}
