Roger,
- There are no UIs for creating bitmaps from scratch.
I have to know the internal structure of a Bitmap to generate a 4 grayscale bitmap
from scratch in my GIF-to-bitmap converter.
- There is no UI for grabbing *just* the bitmap from the screen (or an offscreen
window) so it can be used later with WinDrawBitmap.
I use PalmOS calls to put my bitmap in a window and draw on it. But from there I
can't use APIs to retrieve the "drawn-on" bitmap and save it for later use. I've got
to go inside the Window structure to get it back. I'm don't want to drag the entire
window structure with me wherever I go, especially since my GIF-to-bitmap converter
creates just bitmaps.
Wow... I *love* to have you tell me I'm being silly because I ignored some useful
APIs. But I'm not holding my breath ;-)
