Hi everyone,

Wow, purebasic has sure come a long way since I last played with it.

Could someone please advise me on the fastest way to read/write single pixels to a screen opened using OpenScreen()

Is it using the 2d drawing functions Plot/Point.

All the best

Steve.

If you use OpenScreen(), just use StartDrawing(ScreenOutput()) and Plot(). It's very very fast (direct memory access). Point() isn't accelerated for now, so it's pretty slow.
