Hi, I was reading a rotation thread in the beginners forum and there was some discussion about not loading graphics before calling graphics due to possible corruption. Well my framework tends to set a graphics mode then load everything in. Fine, but then the use can change screen mods (windowed/full-screen) simply by pressing F and this seems totally fine too, i.e. no corruption, but I haven't tested it on a huge range of PCs (none of my customers have reported a problem either). Is this something I should worry about or is it just a red herring? I know that in BlitzPlus Dynamic images got trashed if you alt+tabbed but it doesn't seem to be an issue in BMax.

Thanks.
