Hello.

Where do am I wrong ?

I think I tried to do the same thing a while ago and came to the conclusion that it could be broken. I switched my program to OpenLayer (for other reasons) and promptly forgot about it before following it up any further. (I could have been doing something wrong too though...)

A dialog uses a dirty rectangles-like system. So when you clear the bitmap, the dialog has no idea it needs to redraw itself, and thus doesn't, leaving your bitmap blank. Either don't clear the bitmap, or tell the dialog to redraw all of itself:
dialog_message(MainGui, MSG_DRAW, NULL);

Timorg

You needed to set the gui objects colors set_dialog_color() and broadcast_dialog_message() telling it needs to be redrawn

That solves my problem, thanks.
