Hi, > >
(...) >B. you can code up the OnPaint function to paint the correct ONE of your images. Then you can make a Timer object on your form. When the timer fires, you can call the static Graphics.FromHwnd to get a graphics object and directly >paint the newer image. Also update a member variable with the current image so that if your window is covered and uncovered it will paint the correct thing. Instead of directly drawing the image, in this case use Invalidate (ImageRectangle) which will cause OnPaint to be called, thereby avoiding Graphics.FromHwnd.

The code runs perfectly fine with .NET and as well as the Win MONO(1.2.4) platforms , but when I port the identical code to the Mono develop running on the Linux (2.6.22-Fedora) the images are displayed in sporadic bursts . The code snippet: protected override void OnPaint(PaintEventArgs e) { //base.OnPaint(e); Graphics gr ,gf; gr = e.Graphics; gf = Graphics.FromHwnd(this.Handle); for (; intCtr < Cntr; intCtr += 1) { // call the final rect //passEncStr = enS.EnCodeString((string)a2[intCtr]); PaintFinalRect(enS.EnCodeString((string)a2[intCtr]),gr); Thread.Sleep(100); base.OnPaint(e); gf.FillRectangle(new SolidBrush(this.BackColor), this.ClientRectangle); gr.Dispose(); if (intCtr == Cntr - 1) { intCtr = 0; } } return; } I s there a problem with the primary thread Sleep methods ? -- Visit us at http://www.2pirad.com/ -- _______________________________________________ Mono-winforms-list maillist - [email protected] http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/mono-winforms-list
