This is probably very obvious a question and I've looked right through it in the manual but...
Is it possible to switch off the clear screen in the Double Buffer? So in effect, 3D objects get drawn to the background?
Can DarkBasicV1 do this too?
For 99% of users, this is an undesirable effect but its quite appropiate for my program.
Sometimes this happens by accident when the program is shrunk down by another program interupting (ie. Yahoo Messenger). Opening it back up creates this bug that ironically, I want to create.

yeah, dont blame you. What a load of *>@"£$?

Basically, I want to stop the background refreshing itself.
So in effect, 3D objects get drawn to the screen.

Now why didnt I say it like that before?

You could try turning off the backdrop, I know this 'problem' is experienced using camera to image commands when there is no backdrop.
