Carlos,

>I did not find anything in XbpPresSpace()

This is an internal method that isn't documented. But it is pretty much 
identical to the GraCaptionStr() function, which is actually just a wrapper 
for that particular method:

GraCaptionStr([<oPS>], <aStartPoint>, [<aEndPoint>], <cCaption>, ;
              [<nAlign>], [<nTabChars>]) --> lSuccess

Becomes:

oPS:DrawCaptionStr(<aStartPoint>, [<aEndPoint>], <cCaption>, ;
                  [<nAlign>], [<nTabChars>]) --> lSuccess

or:

oPS:DrawCaptionStr(<aStartPoint>, [<aEndPoint>], <cCaption>, ;
                  [<nAlign>], [<nTabChars>], [<nPart>]) --> lSuccess

The [<nPart>] parameter, which only exists in versions after 1.00.331, isn't 
actually used anywhere, though!

You can also see the actual code implementation in the XbParts.prg file, 
which is in the ..\Source\SYS\ or ..\Source\Runtime\DUI\ folder, depending 
on your Xbase++ version.

Hope that helps,

Andreas
