Hi, all

I'm writing a game for the PPC in C#. I'd like to be able to drag a coloured
circle across the screen. Solitaire does a great job of dragging fairly
large images around.

Are there any samples for this sort of thing around? Any suggestions?

Thanks!

just a pointer,... do't redraw the background.. override onPaintBackground
and don't call the base...

Hi Rick,

In the MSDN library under ".NET Development->.NET Compact
Framework->Technical Articles" there is an article titled "Writing Mobile
Games Using the Microsoft .NET Compact Framework." In the article, Ravi
discusses optimizations by using dirty rectangles instead of updating the
entire screen, as well as how to override the OnPaint and OnPaintBackground
functions. These techniques should be similar to what you are trying to do.
