I think those are internal, and are actually exposed by other functions. In this case, "dbSetCameraToImage", which does do that.

A couple of them look to do the same thing, create an image of a specific height and width and specify the format. They all return a pointer to a texture. I just haven't gotten down to what Usage is.

WRT rendering to an image, I've figured out how to do it, though it's gotten me so deep into DirectX that I may never have normal dreams again. What's kewl is dealing with the fact that alpha blending on a per pixel basis works very nicely. I've used one of those functions to create a surface for my Image class, which I'm still working on and it seems to work well.

Lilith everything you're doing seems kinda cool in its construction from what I've perused so far...

And I personally usually stay away from the undoc'd at least for now..
