MFC: CreateSolidBrush

[Crisps]

If I do a

hDC = GetDC(m_hWnd);
m_hDC = CreateCompatibleDC(hDC);
m_hBrush = CreateSolidBrush(RGB(0xFF, 0, 0));

SelectObject(m_hDC, m_hBrush)

RECT rect;

rect.top = (m_ry * m_iSize) + m_iOffsetY;
rect.left = (m_rx * m_iSize) + m_iOffsetX;
rect.right = ((m_rx + 1) * m_iSize) + m_iOffsetX;
rect.bottom = ((m_ry + 1) * m_iSize) + m_iOffsetX;

FillRect(m_hDC, &rect, m_hBrush);

I get a black and white patterned square instead of a nice red square. Any idea how this could happen. (I am using a colour display and a normal window)

Thanks,

What is m_hBrush? Is it a CBrush? Have a look at

sorry, this is GDI not MFC. the m_hBrush is just a handle (HBRUSH)
