Ah! Now I remember. Simple enough - don't use Form>>paint for drawing, use
Form>>over (its also faster). E.g., instead of Canvas>>paintImage: use
Canvas>>drawImage: for displaying the form. The trick is that Form>>paint
interprets a zero pixel to be transparent so you see what's behind rather
than a solid black.
