Anyone have any experience of saving and restoring screen areas with Easyptr under GD2? Can it be made to work reliably or not?
I had a quick go and could get it to load (L_WSA) a mode 32 PIC file and display it (using WSARS) as long as the PIC file and the current screen mode were the same, i.e. mode 32 pictures could only be displayed in mode 32, a mode 0 (QL 4 colour) pic could not be displayed in mode 32 for example, which was probably predictable. If anyone knows more about this, let me know to save me wasting too much time on something which can't be done reliably yet. (I'm trying to write a simple PIC and SCR graphics viewer for Launchpad using Easyptr). What I'm afraid of is a scenario like: I find it only works on QPC2 for example as it's the only GD2 system I have to test it on at the moment! It seems to work at first glance, but it's my first significant foray into Easyptr versus GD2, so any advice gratefully received! -- Dilwyn Jones
