I need to crop a picture that I created by code. I think I am supposed to use a mask but I haven’t been able to figure it out. I thought you were supposed to create a picture fill it with black and apply it as a mask to the picture requiring the mask but it’s not working. I’m sure it’s simple but can someone help get me started? 🙂 ---

Have you looked at all the parameters of [DrawPicture](http://documentation.xojo.com/index.php/Graphics.DrawPicture)? That might help you. ---
