how to obtain the HDC of a HBITMAP?
- Thread starter ultra2
- Start date
An hBitmap does not have an hDC
You would need to select the bitmap into an device context first
However, since all you seem to be trying to do (reading other posts) is resize an image held in an imagelist, why not just use VB's PaintPicture method?

Absolutely.
But it gets more difficult the prettier you want it to be ...
Next level is indeed to use StretchBlit with the approriate StretchMode set. Check out my example in thread222-539638
Next level after that is probably to use GDI+, but we'll leave that for now ...
