OK. So this all works fine in Smile and displays a graphic in a new Graphic Window quite quickly. Can I get Smile to save as a PNG (or any bitmap format) without drawing to screen?

Sure.

set w to make new graphic window with properties {visible:false} -- will not draw to screen!
[make the graphic]
save w in file "HD:Users:...:whatever.png" -- Smile understands when you provide a file extension


A quick play has Script Editor telling Smile to draw the graphic. Now I just need to know what to do instead of "BeginFigure(0)..."

Make your own graphic window as I sketch above, then do BeginFigure(w) etc.

Will explore more but if you can shortcut the learning process, it'd be appreciated.

Just ask.
