Does Windows use GDI to draw its widgets? - Sikon 11:02, 15 January 2006 (UTC)

Yes. Frames, buttons, scroll bars, icons, etc. are drawn using GDI (maybe GDI+ in WinXP?). --Pinzo 19:55, 5 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Three core components of Windows?

Sooo, I look up GDI and I read "one of the three core components or 'subsystems' of Microsoft Windows". I read the whole article and look at the references, and nowhere I find out which the other two subsystems are. This article should mention them! abelson 12:32, 17 May 2006 (UTC)

This probably means GDI, kernel and user. I have some doubts whether this categorisation from 1990's is still valid today. Pavel Vozenilek 17:23, 27 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Removal of GDI+ vulnerability

On May 28 User:AlistairMcMillan removed the GDI+ vulnerability section. See [1]. The JPEG article still links to this information here, which no longer exists. Personally I think the GDI+ vulnerability section should be included. It was a pretty important bug in Windows. Oskar Liljeblad 07:17, 3 October 2006 (UTC)
