Have been programming for a long time but am just learning my way around palmos. 
While programming a more or less classic swap type jigsaw puzzle,I wish to have a copy 
of the screen image offscreen so that I can put the pieces back onscreen in mixed-up 
order. I have been attempting to do this by copying the screen to offscreen by using 
wincopyrectangle src to dest with coords of 160x160 (entire screen). I also attempted 
winsavebits. The form bitmap has been divided up and the exact coordinates of each 
piece is in an array of records(yes I am a pascal person I don't believe 'C' existed 
at the time I learned pascal and I never switched. Thanks delphi, Thanks 
pocketstudio). The problem is that when I put the piece back on the main screen using 
the exact copied offscreen image with the exact coordinates it is the wrong size. It 
appears to be from the correct place and into the correct place but is either 
double-width or double height or both.
  I assume that there is something that is fundamentally wrong about doing things in 
this manner. Please inform me of how such a simple procedure is commonly done and what 
I am doing incorrectly.
