How can I save a screen or info on it?

I am in the midst of a drawing program and wondered if anyone has any ideas on how to save what has been drawn?

Is there a way to save an entire screen then bring it back in?

Or is the only approach to save the positions that are drawn and save the positions and then when you need to bring that screen back, you load the data and re-create the screen??

Any ideas? [import]uid: 34179 topic_id: 8358 reply_id: 308358[/import]

You can use display.save() to save a display object to an image file on disk, which you can then load into your app.
