1. Pixmap limit?

I'm wondering (all you windows programmers out there) how many pixmaps you can have open at one time? They'll be big, whatever the resolution of the system is (800x600, 1024 x768, etc) Or does anyone know how much memory pixmaps take according to their size, or if there are any other limits to how many can be open? The program has to work on the USER'S system, not mine, otherwise I'd just loop create until freeze. ===================================================== .______<-------------------\__ / _____<--------------------__|=== ||_ <-------------------/ \__| Mr Trick

Topica is clipping off the top of all my posts, not sure why. So, I'll put some unimportant stuff here so that it gets clipped. Topica is clipping off the top of all my posts, not sure why.

But on Win9x, the system has limited number of resources and tends to behave strange or crash when nearing the limit (shared by all applications) > Or does anyone know how much memory pixmaps take according to their size, or > if there are any other limits to how many can be open? They should take bits_per_pixel * width * height / 8 bytes + some extra. Matrin

extra line Ok then... Assuming 64mb RAM.... 24bit x 1024 x 768 / 8 + (abit) =3D 2,359,296 + a few So... about 25 - 30 then.... damn. 24bit x 800 x 600 / 8 + (abit) =3D 1,440,000 + a few So... about 44 Oh well... I'll just recommend more memory, or just let it use virtual=20 memory. =3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D= =3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D= =3D=3D=3D=3D=3D .______<-------------------\__ / _____<--------------------__|=3D=3D=3D ||_ <-------------------/ \__| Mr Trick >From: Martin Stachon <martin.stachon at worldonline.cz> >Reply-To: EUforum at topica.com >To: EUforum <EUforum at topica.com> >Subject: Re: Pixmap limit? >Date: Mon, 21 Apr 2003 16:53:30 +0200 > >----- Original Message ----- >Sent: Sunday, April 20, 2003 7:33 AM > > > > I'm wondering (all you windows programmers out there) how many pixmaps= =20 >you > > can have open at one time?
