[Gambas-user] Re; Image handling ...

Urm,

I was using a picture box and you said;

Well, the picture is ~ 12k bytes at 320x240 or about 55k at 640x480 ...
So I opted for Cached = FALSE ..

I just tried;

  draw.Begin($canvas)
  draw.Picture($picture, 0, 0, 320, 240)  
  draw.End

in place of $canvas.Refresh with Cached = TRUE .. got a blank page ...

Not sure how cached = True works .. will investigate if you think it will help ..

Gareth.

Why don't you use a "cached" DrawingArea ?
