Replace the Imaq ArrayToImage and WinDraw ?

Hello,
I got the Imaq Grab to Send over TCP code example cause I'm working on a very close project, but I don't have the IMAQ Vision software.
So I want to know if there is any solution to replace the IMAQ ArrayToImage.vi and IMAQ WinDraw.vi to Display the receive Images?

The typical solutions are to use either the picture control or the
intensity graph. The intensity graph does false coloring and zooming,
but because of the false coloring, it is limited to 256 simultaneous
colors in a single intensity graph. Like I said, though, it has cursors
and works well for monochrome images.

The picture control can display color images, doesn't support zooming
directly, but your have quite a few properties to enhance your display
interaction if you wish
.

Neither of these is as high performance a display as the IMAQ viewer,
but since you are already networking your data,I doubt that is
significant in this case.

This may not answer your question exactly but there is an example from NI which shows how get the high frame rate display in a front panel without needing IMAQ vision. Its at:

or search for "without IMAQ Vision"
It's a pity that IMAQ WinDraw is only included in IMAQ Vision as in many cases it the only Vision vi needed for simple IMAQ applications.
