I'm able to create a color bitmap for an About screen and a mono bitmap but
only when these are the only bitmaps for the particular bitmap. I've tried
every configuration of these using PilRC BITMAP familys to allow the OS to
choose which to use depending on PDA resources but it will only
on PDA resources but it will only
select the mono, even in a color environment. Do the two bitmaps in the
family have to be exactly the same pixel size to be part of a family of
bitmaps?
Yes, bitmaps within a family should have the same dimensions. Think of a
bitmap family as one picture

Thanks for your reply. I read that article and I looked through the source

The best available source on the structure of a bitmap family is probably
PilRC -- it's not Palm OS code, but it talks about all those things.
Do you mean read the source code?

Yes, that's what I mean; it's there for you to read since PilRC is under

depth my screen is at (the one that WinDrawBitmap() would naturally
choose) If they were uncompressed and the same size, I could do

Under Palm OS 3.5 debug Rom, if I set the screen depth to

Do I HAVE to specify a bitmap as part of a bitmap
family if I want to use
color bitmaps in my application?

effort to force it to work properly failed, however

about and let the OS pick the best bitmap to use at runtime, based on the
current color depth of the device. So, you don't have to write code like
