Exploring Graphics Concepts
Graphics programming requires specialized knowledge of page flipping, animation, pixel addressing, color representation, video-related concepts, coordinate systems, matrices, and the way physical objects behave in the real world (physics). You also need to know how to use Windows CE, DirectDraw® and to apply this specialized knowledge to your graphics development.
A complete discussion of graphics concepts is beyond the scope of this documentation. The topics listed below provide a basic introduction to the complex graphics concepts that you need to know to create the graphics applications using Microsoft® Windows CE, and DirectDraw.
Even if you are an experienced graphics programmer, Microsoft recommends that you scan these topics for information specific to Windows CE, DirectDraw, and graphics programming.
