Works great. Thanks for taking the time.

(The memory/video bitmap thing was from way back when I first
 implemented this (shortly before feature freeze for 5.0 I think).
 Back then, it seemed like
 using a memory bitmap first greatly sped up the creation process
 itself and then later using a video bitmap seemed to increase
 rendering speed. I don't know why this is not required anymore,
 creation speed is probably faster now due to the locking and the
 different way of placing the glyph pixels but I can't imagine why
 rendering speed is also ok now.)
