The very model of clarity, Alex.
Many thanks for that.

May I just add that the ver.no. of FBlit is 3.51a or higher.

To everyone reading the above:

This is how to take the MAXIMUM advantage of OS3.5+
The above /solves completely/ the problem of leaking memory (typically
300k+ of chipmem) after fiddling with icon information and so on.

It really is as simple as this.

If the above does not solve your problem, then you need to look at
your whole system setup to find out what is causing the memory
loss.

The above does not (afaIk) deal with reported probs of FastMem
consumption under OS3.5BB1.
