Two ways. First like this:

Rich I just learned something form your first snippet.

I didn't know that one could display a bitmap simply by
executing the Set Current Bitmap command!

The more you see, the more you know.

Hehe Rich, DOH!

A third option, or second working option, is to load the bitmap onto bitmap zero such as this:



This method will not replace the bitmap when other 2D commands draw over it but involves no cpu time once it is displayed.

So if you are drawing stuff that moves to the screen, uses Rich's second example - but if this is displayed and left on screen - use my example.

As for Rich's first example, err.... that's one for the hall of fame

Hurm, hall of shame even. It's meant to be "copy bitmap 1,0" instead of set current, but I changed it now.

Why are you using "load bitmap x.bmp,0" btw? 0 is the default.

Cheers,

Rich
