CREATESCREEN cant' exceed screen size

[flet]

Tried to create a virtual screen with CREATESCREEN, with width = twice the real screen width, height = twice that of the real screen too.
When drawspriting the associated sprite to the back buffer (with x and y offset), the part of the virtual screen outside the boundaries of the real screen appears either empty or not properly dispalyed.
Target platform : WinCE.

ALl right, source code:

Code: (glbasic) [Select]

ALLOWESCAPE TRUE
CREATESCREEN 1, 1, 480, 480
USESCREEN 1
DRAWRECT 0, 0, 480, 480, RGB (255, 0, 0)
USESCREEN -1
DRAWSPRITE 1, -120, -120
SHOWSCREEN
WHILE TRUE
MOUSEWAIT
WEND
ENDOn a 240x240 PDA, the above code should make the entire screen red. It actually only draws a 120x120 red square in the top left corner of the screen.

Yes, this is nt possible ATM. I'm trying to fix this, but it's quite some work. Sorry.

OK.
Simply making it explicit in the doc would help a lot!

BTW : how do I save an image file larger than the screen size? Is it alos not possible ?
Thanks

no, not possible, too. With Savesprite when createsurface bigger screen works one day.
