I am working on a project in TC with Bitmap images that should be moving on the screen when the user runs the program.
The problem I am having with this code is that i cannot see the full images i am using in the program (in other words, i would like the user to know what image he/she is viewing on the screen). Can someone help me please.

	putpixel(x++,y,bit2);

	}

	}

I would recommend GDI++ for this animation type of projects.

Or if you want to go a step further for maybe a little more animation/3D kick to it go with OpenGL or DirectX.

As using other methods is a bit more trouble sum as you will have to deal with all sort of situations like flickering images,half drawn images,un-drawn background,etc.


I am making an app that will also use a lot of animation and im going with DirectX(still learning),as it will use a lot of animation features such as cover flow,interactive GUI,and more.

Ok. Actually i was thinking the same as you did. I asked my teacher if i can do it in another langauage since TC is a little complicated. But he told me no. We are currently programming in TC. That's why i am trying to use BMP images with TC.

Can someone help me please with this code. I cannot view the image in which i am using in this program. As the code shows, I am trying to use a bmp image in TC with movements.
Can someone explain to me what i have wrong in my code or what i am missing please. Thanks you

1) Dont put your message in quote boxes.
2) To make it simple, use a compilier with RAD (Rapid Application Development).

Such as Visual C++, Borland (Unless you want it to work on other computers), ect...Just google for one.

It will allow you to put a BMP image on it and you can move it in your code or flash several pictures to make it look like an animation.
