I have a form with no UI elements on it, and I draw bitmaps in a 4 x 3
arrangement directly on the form.  In an attempt to get a "select" effect
when a penDown event happens on one of these bitmaps, I used the code from
the DrawInversionEffect function in the OS 3.5 limited source code that is
available.  This code has no effect in my situation.  In it, there is a
WinPaintRectangle call - I added the four calls below in an attempt to find
out what's going on:

    WinDrawRectangle(rP, cornerDiam);
    WinFillRectangle(rP, cornerDiam);
    WinEraseRectangle(rP, cornerDiam);
    WinDrawChars("Hello!", 6, rP->topLeft.x, rP->topLeft.y);

Only the WinDrawChars call works - the others have no effect.

What, in theory, could make the WinXXXRectangle calls have no visible
effect, but leave WinDrawChars unaffected?

Thanks,

Mark Peters
