  • Memory Devices vs. Multibuf

    Hi,
    Could you explain the difference between using Memory Deives vs. Double Buffering? Can they be use together? and is there advantage/disadvantage of using one or the other?
    Thank you for your help

  • Hello nosreme,

    Yes, they can be used at the same time. The advantage of Memory Devices is that they can be created and deleted at any time using any size and any color depth. Memory Devices allow implementation of animations (also in combination with windows) and avoid flickering. Using Multiple Buffering avoids flickering as well as tearing effects which may be visible when animations of huge objects (e.g. rotated bitmaps) are processed.

    For detailed information about Multiple Buffering and Memory Devices, please refer to the according chapters in the emWin user manual.

    Best regards,
    Adrian
