Just a quick question.

Is it possible to have only say, a quarter of the form use directx? and is it possible to move this area around the form?

Or, would the solution for this be to have two forms on screen simultaneously?

Help appreciated,

Joe.

it would probably be to have 2 forms on the screen.... you COULD probably move it, but it doesn't really like it.....

*Sigh*

yes it is! any shape you want, how many form you want....

it's easy!

Neither of those projects have references to DirectX, so don't waiste your time trying them. They deal with custom form shapes.

Here are some tutorials on programming with DirectDraw.
