Maarten's method does work.

But I think I understand better now. I should be drawing directly to canvas1.graphics, as in

   canvas1.graphics.drawpicture mypicture,0,0

Maarten, I think you're just confusing him. These new-fangled approaches of passing False to the Refresh method, or unchecking EraseBackground on the Canvas, may work in some cases, but they're not necessary. The tried and true approach of simply drawing to the canvas graphics, without calling Refresh at all, is cleaner and works reliably on any version of RB, running on any OS.
