    Thank you Jack and Phil for the helpful comments.

    Now I understand, that I have 3 choices:

    1. to modify my legacy code, that, actually, not a big issue, I just
    afraid of performance problems, all D3D articles I have read till now
    state that lit/transformed/DrawPromotiveUP is the most efficient way
    to show 2D pics in the 3D world, and I have up to 10 pretty large pics
    per second.

    2. to modify my own code to make transition effect working with
    lit/transformed vertices. Probably, I am missing something here, but
    if the vertex is already lit and transformed, I have no options for
    playing with lights and/or projections - how can I do any transform
    here ?

    3. getting both to generate the same results by Phil's way - here I am
    absolutely clueless.

    I have some mathematical background, don't afraid of doing some math,
    just didn't get a point here - probably lack in my DX knowledge, that
    is completely "teaching myself".

    Thanks a lot
    AC
