bitmap

[BoB]

hey dose any one have a good example on bitblt or bitmap like where you can have images and cut them up if you have a good one or can tell me what the api is and i can just mess around with it thanks

To use BitBlt? Try this example. It will first lay your Mask down; and then your Sprite. Call them picMask and picSprite.

Code for a module.

Declare Function BitBlt Lib "gdi32" (ByVal hDestDC As Long, ByVal x As Long, ByVal y As Long, ByVal nWidth As Long, ByVal nHeight As Long, ByVal hSrcDC As Long, ByVal xSrc As Long, ByVal ySrc As Long, ByVal dwRop As Long) As Long
Public Const SRCAND = &H8800C6
Public Const SRCCOPY = &HCC0020
Public Const SRCPAINT = &HEE0086
Public Const MERGEPAINT = &HBB0226

Code for a CommandButton.

BitBlt Form1.hDC, 0, 0, picMask.Width, picMask.Height, picMask.hDC, 0, 0, SRCAND
BitBlt Form1.hDC, 0, 0, picSprite.Width, picSprite.Height, picSprite.hDC, 0, 0, SRCPAINT

You mean exaplin each parameter?

The first is the hDC you want to copy to, the next 4 are the Left, Top, Width and Height of where you want the Image copied to. The next 2 are the Left and Top Coordinates of the Image being copied. The last one is the hDC of the Image being copied.
