Is 'text mode' actually text mode or is it graphics mode? The user's manual isn't clear... Thanks, Lance

Old mails in the archive
by Frank Heckenbach 04 Apr '04

04 Apr '04

Hi, some old mails (from the time 1998-2001) that Anja Gerwinski found on an old server are now available in the online archives of grx and grx-announce. (They are numbered 0 and below, to avoid shifting the numbers of current mails.) Frank -- Frank Heckenbach, frank(a)g-n-u.de http://fjf.gnu.de/ GnuPG and PGP keys: http://fjf.gnu.de/plan (7977168E)

Strange compile error in DevC++ & MinGW ?
by Peter Williams 31 Mar '04

31 Mar '04

I am using DevC++ & MinGW for GRX. If I have a defined constant 'white' (as a color index) then attempt to use GrWhite() a "parse error before numeric constant" is reported. E.g. #include <grx20.h> #include <grxkeys.h> #define white 0 GrColor White; int main(void) { GrSetMode(GR_default_graphics); White = GrWhite();/* gives "parse error before numeric constant" */ /* White = GrAllocColor(255,255,255); */ return(0); } If I remove my 'define' all is well, as is if I use GrAlloc instead of GrWhite. -- Peter Williams peter.williams173(a)ntlworld.com

Pascal types
by Frank Heckenbach 29 Mar '04

29 Mar '04

Hi, there are many bugs in the types in the Pascal interface (all the range from harmless to unportable to fatal). (I don't know what happened to them, since in an old version of grx.pas I got from somewhere, GrPattern was already correctly declared as a variant record, and in grx-2.4.6 it's wrong again ...) The attached patch should fix them, but I didn't test it extensively. So if someone else could have at look at them, I'd appreciate this.

Trouble with GrMouseWarp
by Peter Williams 17 Mar '04

17 Mar '04

Dear GRX I am reassured to hear that others have found difficulties with GrMouseWarp. I find that (under Win32) with the Gr_default_graphics, I can get GrMouseWarp to position itself correctly by adding 50 pixels to each of the x & y coordinates. However, I am sure that a new universal constant of nature has not been discovered. Something is not right... Also, I still can not get the mouse cursor to disappear.

problem using grx24 under djgppv2 with ati radeon 9600 graphic card.
by Je10bonjour＠aol.com 17 Mar '04

17 Mar '04

Hello, Using Grx24 (or greater) with djgppv2, the next problem appear under windows 98 or Xp when I use an Ati Radeon 9600 graphic card. In resolutions greater than 640x480, 256 colors or more, GrPixel or similaries orders that read the color of a portion of screen (GrBitBlt for example), give bad results. The portion that is read is often an other portion of the screen. The consequence is that the mouse erase all under it. It is thence impossible to use the mouse. The problem appear with the demogrx.exe for example, or with doing: mousetst 1024 768 256 , that test mouse in resolution 1024x768 256 colors. Is this a bug in grx or in the graphic card ? No problem using mingw and grx246 with the same graphic card. Thank you for the answer. Serge Cabala. P.S. I have done very good animations on waves using grx246. You can download these animations on my internet site htt://members.aol.com/scabala25 (site in french) . You can also find the site with Google for example, keywords : serge cabala

Trouble with GrMouseWarp
by Peter Williams 16 Mar '04

16 Mar '04

Dear GRX I have experienced trouble using GrMouseWarp under Win32(MinGW). Using it seems to position the cursor in the wrong place. Also, GrMouseErase does not seem to remove the cursor. I enclose a sample program. This draws a white cross at the centre. I then try and position the mouse cursor over it using GrMouseWarp. This seems to give the wrong position. Hiding it with GrMouseErase does not seem to work. I would be grateful of any advice. /* Program draws a white cross in the centre of the screen */ /* It then attempts to position the mouse at his point. */ /* Using GrMouseWarp(oX,oY) it attempts to match this point */ /* GrMouseEraseCursor() attempts to hide the mouse cursor */ /* Under Win32(MinGW) (W2000 & XP) it fails in these last two tasks */ /* Program is halted by a key press */ #include <stdio.h> #include <grx20.h> int main() { GrMouseEvent event; /*Mouse event */ int x,y,buttons; /* Mouse position & buttons */ int xMax,yMax,oX,oY; /* Size of screen & centre */ GrGraphicsMode gM; GrVideoAdapter gV; GrSetMode(GR_default_graphics); GrMouseInit(); /* In this order */ xMax = GrSizeX(); yMax = GrSizeY(); oX = xMax/2; oY = yMax/2; GrMouseWarp(oX,oY); GrMouseEraseCursor(); printf("xMax = %d yMax = %d\n",xMax,yMax); printf("oX = %d oY = %d\n",oX,oY); gM = GrCurrentMode(); printf("Graphics mode = %d\n",gM); gV = GrAdapterType(); printf("Video adapter = %d\n",gV); while(1) { GrMouseGetEvent(GR_M_MOTION,&event); GrLine(oX-4,oY,oX+4,oY,GrWhite()); GrLine(oX,oY-4,oX,oY+4,GrWhite()); if(GrKeyPressed()) break; } GrMouseUnInit(); return 0; } -- Pete Williams peter.williams173(a)ntlworld.com
