I'm working on a turn-based strategy game for Pocket PCs with C#. Until now, I have been using the default Graphics commands of CF .net.
Even if I don't need a high frame rate, the drawing time was getting a bit slow. I decided to use GAPI to speed this up, I found a lot of articles about this so it wasn’t too hard to use it in fullscreen. However, I would like to use it on a form or maybe in a picture box to allow the user to access other programs easily.
Or… maybe is it possible to draw on a limited region of the screen?
Anything you know or saw about a non-fullscreen use of GAPI is welcome.
Thanks,
