Why, Ahh, Why!?!

[Arie]

Hi!!!
I wanna know something that really bugs me:
Why in VB there are these flashes of animation.
It happens when I switch pictures fast. Why?
Is there a way to fix it? If someone know how
please tell me...

Thank you,
Arie.

You have to draw pictures directly on the Form or PictureBox with the PaintPicture method. Or, even better, use the BitBlt API function.

Here's an example:


object.AutoRedraw = True

<do some paintings here>
<either PaintPicture or BitBlt>

object.Refresh


That should solve your problems.

What is the PaintPicture thing?
Can you write an example for it?

Thank you,
Arie.
