Hi, I am trying to draw a new bitmap on a DirectDraw Surface every few seconds. I could only find in the constructor of the Surface an option to change the bitmap. So instead of creating a new surface for every new bitmap I followed this code IntPtr hDC = surface.GetDc(); Graphics g = Graphics.FromHdc(hDC); g.DrawImage(bitmap, 0, 0); g.Dispose(); surface.ReleaseDc(hDC); Any other better way to do this?

hi, sorry for the delay. I have created a single surface on which I have to keep on drawing images. So I am using the Graphics object to do so by obtaining the DC of the surface. Is there any other way to draw the image without creating a new surface for every new bitmap.

Hi, I am trying to draw a large image(2048x2048) on a surface using Graphics.DrawImage. The problem that I am having is that there is no image shown on the surface. But if I reduce the image size to 1024x1024 the image is drawn. can anyone help me find a solution for this without changing the image size? Thanks
