Having steeped myself in the arcane lore of the unseen world (ie, offscreen drawing) and wishing to make myself worthy to partake of the blessings as outlined in the scriptures (ie, TN 277, "Of Time, Space and _CopyBits"), how do I receive these great gifts of the gods? Or, to put it in more mundane language, how do I change the code in Sample Code #15 to guarantee that my bit/pixmaps will always be aligned to the longword boundaries of my window? I have looked through the code fairly carefully, but nothing seems to leap out at me as being the right place to put the magic incantation rowBytes = ((pixelDepth * ( bounds.right - bounds.left ) + 31) / 32) * 4; so that all my bytes will pill be properly aligned. A simple pointer to the correct procedure should be sufficient ( "Look *HERE*, stupid!" ). If anyone else is interested leave me e-mail and I will let you know what I find out..
