Hi!

When do we use blit and when do we use draw_something? Is blit faster / better?

Best regards,
Alex

Hi, you have to know that draw_rect works differently for your app surface and 
regular surfaces. If you draw to your app, the pixels just get the value of the 
color. But if you do this to a regular surface, and blit that to your app 
surface, the pixels will be blendet...
So create a new surface, modify that, blit and update.

Cheers
