Another suggestion (in addition to the one that Ben provided) might be 
to keep all the bitmaps in the same family, but declare only one family 
member for a particular depth.  So you might create the family like this:

BITMAPfamilyex ID bitmapID
begin
   BITMAP "bitmap_v1_1.bmp" bpp 1 density 1 transparent 255 255 255
   BITMAP "bitmap_v1_2.bmp" bpp 2 density 1 transparent 255 255 255
   BITMAP "bitmap_v1_4.bmp" bpp 4 density 1 transparent 255 255 255
   BITMAP "bitmap_v1_8.bmp" bpp 8 density 1 transparent 255 255 255
   BITMAP "bitmap_v1_16.bmp" bpp 16 density 1 transparent 255 255 255
   BITMAP "bitmap_v1_16_hires.bmp" bpp 16 density 2 transparent 255 255 255
end
In 16 bit mode, the bitmap resolution would match the display, but in 
any other mode it would display only in low res.  I didn't try this, but 
I think it would work.  Bob.

Tnx,
it`s changing color depth OK, but can`t change resolution, do you know
something about this?
UInt32 widScr = 160;
UInt32 heiScr = 160;
UInt32 clrDpth = 8;
UInt8 enClr = 1;
WinScreenMode(winScreenModeSet, &widScr,  &heiScr, &clrDpth, &enClr);

Hi Vladan, have you looked at the WinScreenMode command?  Bob.
   

I am developing graphic app, In BITMAPFAMILYEX i have two bitmaps, 8bit
     

and
 

16bit color, this is ok, but i want allow user to choose between 8bit and
16bit design , (8bit is simple and clear), what is best way to do this,
     

how
 

can i force 16bit color device to show 8bit bitmap from BitmapFamily
resource?
Thank You,
Vladan Markovic
