Hi Knut1,

i don`t think it is possible to open a external dx9 device and read and draw there a sprite. It is much more complicate. In normal cases the dx9 device make a draw between some commands like:

*D3D\CreateDevice(#D3DADAPTER_DEFAULT, #D3DDEVTYPE_HAL, hwnd, BehaviorFlags, Rendering, @*D3DDevice)

D3D9_Clear(D3DCOLOR_COLORVALUE(0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 1.0))
D3D9_StartDrawing()

-> here comes the drawing
draw sprite from sprite manager ore interface ore something else

D3D9_StopDrawing()
D3D9_FlipBuffers()

if you only have the information about the dx9 *D3DDevice this information does not help. You must have infoomation about a used sprite manager and must add and read a sprite from them.

I think you does need much more informations about this program to read and write sprites and png files.

best regards,
Michael
