    <p>I've looked around a lot and the only methods I've found for creating a Texture2D from a Bitmap are:</p> <pre><code>using (MemoryStream s = new MemoryStream()) { bmp.Save(s, System.Drawing.Imaging.ImageFormat.Png); s.Seek(0, SeekOrigin.Begin); Texture2D tx = Texture2D.FromFile(device, s); } </code></pre> <p>and</p> <pre><code>Texture2D tx = new Texture2D(device, bmp.Width, bmp.Height, 0, TextureUsage.None, SurfaceFormat.Color); tx.SetData&lt;byte&gt;(rgbValues, 0, rgbValues.Length, SetDataOptions.NoOverwrite); </code></pre> <p>Where rgbValues is a byte array containing the bitmap's pixel data in 32-bit ARGB format.</p> <p>My question is, are there any faster approaches that I can try?</p> <p>I am writing a map editor which has to read in custom-format images (map tiles) and convert them into Texture2D textures to display. The previous version of the editor, which was a C++ implementation, converted the images first into bitmaps and then into textures to be drawn using DirectX. I have attempted the same approach here, however both of the above approaches are significantly too slow. To load into memory all of the textures required for a map takes for the first approach ~250 seconds and for the second approach ~110 seconds on a reasonable spec computer (for comparison, C++ code took approximately 5 seconds). If there is a method to edit the data of a texture directly (such as with the Bitmap class's LockBits method) then I would be able to convert the custom-format images straight into a Texture2D and hopefully save processing time.</p> <p>Any help would be very much appreciated.</p> <p>Thanks</p>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
