How to create a new graphics object with the same properties as an old graphics object - DOTNET

Hmmmm, I haven't tried this but you could try to save a graphics
container from one Graphics object and load it into the second...

I expected I'd be posting to say how easily it solved my problem.

But I did the following

Dim gs As GraphicsState = mPicGraphics.Save

NewSizeBitmapGraphics.Restore(gs)

Before the statements were run the interpolation method of mPicGraphics was
NearestNeighbor while NewSizeBitmapGraphics was Bilinear(3).

After the statements were run they were unchanged.



Anything else I can try?

Thanks
