1. WINDOZ GUI
Hi,
Yeterday I downloaded Irv's windoz zip from his site and looks cool.
I made some modifications to CLOUDS.BMP with the windows 3.1
paintbrush utillity working under 256 color format and 800*600
resolution.I don't know what happened but now when I run the dbf.ex
the picture looms up with alterated colors...
Any idea about what i'm doing wrong?
Regards,
Luis

Yes:
When you saved the bitmap, it probably changed to a standard
palette. I can't try paintbrush to see if you can choose a
custom palette -- I deleted paintbrush years ago.
PaintShopPro is good for this type of work, and is shareware.

Hi Irv,
It's possible to avoid whole-screen refreshing when you move a
window (from Windoz)?It makes it a 'bit slow'.
Thanks,
Luis

Yes, it is possible. In fact, I have just finished testing
this change. The updated code will be on my web page tomorrow.
Thanks,
