Hi there,

This maybe a bug but im not sure, it might be me doing something stupid somewhere. Anyway, you might want to test this out.

I am creating 3 bitmaps, and then copying a different bitmap onto them. To do this i'm using a FOR/NEXT loop.



Seems simple enough so far yeah?
Now the fun begins, you would of thought with the code above, i'd end up with 4 identical bitmaps (the old one, with three new ones).
What I did end up with is a perfect old (copied from) bitmap, and two nice perfect new ones. Bitmap number seven has turned to be an exact copy of bitmap 0 (the screen).

This can easily be fixed, by creating an eigth bitmap, changing the code to



Now number seven is a perfect copy of number 11, however 8 is now a useless copy of bitmap zero (but i dont need it so i dont care lol).

I hope that all made some sort of sense lol. If it is a bug, it can easily be worked around as shown above, but still should be brung to the attention of the db team.

(P.S., im quite new to bitmaps and all, i normally make everything in 3D lol. So it could just be me being stupid).

I've tried it out myself, and I get no problems ... but I'm using the Update 5 beta.

This means, it's either a DBPro bug that's fixed, or it's you

Here's the text code I've thrown together - try running it and see what you get.

Works for me in P4.1

I think we need to see rest of code that you use to display the created bitmaps as that is probably where problem is.

Your right, its a crap up in the code somewhere else. I wont bother with it though, i'll just use "5 to 8", it's only a small game, and all that will be 2D is the menu system
