Purpose
Overlay a picture on another and allow the user to drag it using BitBlt.
Method
Create a mask that is black where the overlaid picture should show and white
where the background should show. Copy the mask using BitBlt with opcode
MERGEPAINT. Then copy the overlay image with opcode SRCAND.
The book Visual Basic Graphics Programming has more information on this kind
of graphic manipulation. See www.vb-helper.com/vbgp.htm.
The file http://www.vb-helper.com/HowTo/dragpic2.zip performs the same
operation using PaintPicture instead of BitBlt. This version was created
because BitBlt is roughly 10 times faster than PaintPicture. Note that it is
still fairly slow for the purpose of dragging an image around.
