I'm porting my app to WM5 and am having trouble finding the
equivalent
to WinSaveBits and WinRestoreBits so that I can save a rectangular
area of the screen and then restore it. If someone could enlighten
me, it would be much appreciated.
BitBlt() - create an offscreen window, get a drawing context.
its probably more work than you need - are you sure you actually
need
these routines? if your porting all forms to native windows as well;
the
os routines may autiomagically provide this

Thanks Aaron. So, the windows forms should provide the blitting for
me? My main form has a drawing area where lines, circles, arcs, etc.,
are drawn to the window. Right now, when a Windows "child" form is
created, it fullscreen and hide the main form. When its destroyed,
the mainforms widgets are all refreshed, but the lines, arcs, etc.,
are gone.
