I need to keep the big pixmaps in memory because some of them (about 10 pixmaps) they must be displayed every 50 ms. The smallest pixmaps need not to be displayed as fast.

My animation is based on about 140 pixmaps and represents a menu, some of the pixmaps are used to play an animation to set the current item in focus and the others to pass the focus from an item to another.

I found some information about my problem, here are two links if you want to take a look.

It is said that the use of QPixmap could lead to OS limitation and instead it is better to use QImage ... so I'll check my code and try to change QPixmap with QImage. As I use Windows OS ... QPixmap is coupled to the HBITMAP limitation.

I need to investigate some more ... and will keep here a trace of my results.
