Ah, integer fractions - i thought it meant percents, but it means a
representation of rational numbers, through the use of two integers.
Ok. This info may indeed solve this.

Thanks!

Hi Ptyl,

yes, sure. But vcl itself uses integer fractions to express scaling
(check the MapMode class there), as such it should be able to convey
the necessary information. Thus the question for code to look at - I
seem to miss the point. ;)
