    // Scale it by 50%
    Matrix xform = new Matrix();
    xform.Scale(0.5, 0.5);

    sCopy.Transform(xform, false);

    // Color it red
    sCopy.DrawingAttributes.Color = Colors.Red;

    // Return the new stroke
    return (sCopy);
}

Function GetLittleRedStroke(ByVal theStroke As Stroke) As Stroke
    ' Copy the incoming stroke
    Dim sCopy As Stroke = theStroke.Clone()

    ' Scale it by 50%
    Dim xform As New Matrix()
    xform.Scale(0.5, 0.5)

    sCopy.Transform(xform, False)

    ' Color it red
    sCopy.DrawingAttributes.Color = Colors.Red

    ' Return the new stroke
    Return sCopy

End Function 'getLittleRedStroke
