3 | A memory device context provides a means to draw graphics onto a bitmap. When | |
4 | drawing in to a mono-bitmap, using {\tt wxWHITE}, {\tt wxWHITE\_PEN} and | |
5 | {\tt wxWHITE\_BRUSH} | |
6 | will draw the background colour (i.e. 0) whereas all other colours will draw the | |
7 | foreground colour (i.e. 1). | |

19 | ||
20 | A bitmap must be selected into the new memory DC before it may be used | |
21 | for anything. Typical usage is as follows: | |
22 | ||
23 | \begin{verbatim} | |
24 | // Create a memory DC | |
25 | wxMemoryDC temp_dc; | |
26 | temp_dc.SelectObject(test_bitmap); | |
27 | ||
28 | // We can now draw into the memory DC... | |
29 | // Copy from this DC to another DC. | |
30 | old_dc.Blit(250, 50, BITMAP_WIDTH, BITMAP_HEIGHT, temp_dc, 0, 0); | |
31 | \end{verbatim} | |
32 | ||
33 | Note that the memory DC {\it must} be deleted (or the bitmap selected out of it) before a bitmap | |
34 | can be reselected into another memory DC. | |

46 | Constructs a new memory device context. | |
47 | ||
48 | Use the {\it Ok} member to test whether the constructor was successful | |
49 | in creating a usable device context. If you don't pass a valid bitmap | |
50 | to the constructor, don't forget to select a bitmap into the DC before | |
51 | drawing on it. | |
52 | ||
53 | \membersection{wxMemoryDC::SelectObject}\label{wxmemorydcselectobject} | |
54 | ||
55 | \func{void}{SelectObject}{\param{const wxBitmap\& }{bitmap}} | |
56 | ||
57 | Selects the given bitmap into the device context, to use as the memory | |
58 | bitmap. Selecting the bitmap into a memory DC allows you to draw into | |
59 | the DC (and therefore the bitmap) and also to use {\bf Blit} to copy | |
60 | the bitmap to a window. For this purpose, you may find \helpref{wxDC::DrawIcon}{wxdcdrawicon}\rtfsp | |
61 | easier to use instead. | |
62 | ||
63 | If the argument is wxNullBitmap (or some other uninitialised wxBitmap) the current bitmap is selected out of the device | |
64 | context, and the original bitmap restored, allowing the current bitmap to | |
65 | be destroyed safely. | |
