[RESOLVED] A usable BitBlt value?

[asilaydying]

hey guys just a quick question
im assuming i learnt bitblt the right, and possibly the only way. when i use it, i always make the target and the source 'something.hdc'. what i would like to know is if it is possible to make the 'something.picture' value reflect what i have bitblt'd onto the 'something'. i hope this makes sense. the thing is, i want to bitblt a few different things over the top of each other into a picture box and then save the resulting image into a file, but the 'savepicture' command will only accept 'picture' values not hdc's, and of course the 'something.picture' value remains zero. is there a way around this?
any help is more than welcome and much apreciated.

try using

set picture1.picture = picture1.image

autoredraw will need to be set to true
