BUG: CreatePatternBrush() with Large Bitmap GP Fault (92531)
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Windows Software Development Kit (SDK) 3.1
This article was previously published under Q92531 SYMPTOMS
On a machine with an 8514/a video adapter running the Microsoft Windows
graphical environment with the standard 8514/a video driver, when an
application calls the CreatePatternBrush() function to create a brush based
on a bitmap larger than 8 pixels by 8 pixels, Windows terminates the
application with an application execution error.
CAUSE
Contrary to the documentation for the CreatePatternBrush() function on page
114 of the Microsoft Windows Software Development Kit (SDK) "Programmer's
Reference, Volume 2: Functions" manual, this function does not trim a
bitmap larger than 8 pixels by 8 pixels to this size.
STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem with Microsoft Windows version
3.1. We are researching this problem and will post new information here in
the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.
