Exact size bits needed??

Anyone (OK, probably Andreas),

I was trying to save a little time (i.e. full GC's) by reusing a Bitmap from one Form to the next. I figured that if the Bitmap was large enough, any extra space at the end would be ignored, but it appears not to be the case. Seems the VM insists that the bits in a Form be exactly thee right size. Any idea why?

Cheers,
Bob
