Re: [Simh] EXT :Re: Mouse capture on VAXstation II/GPX (KA630) simulator V4.0-0 Current
It looks like mouse capture is still not enabled as I'm sure the release key should be shown in the window title bar. You can toggle the messages region with CTRL+F2. I'll give the latest code a try to see if I can reproduce the issues. The QDSS does have some known issues which cause screen corruption over time. I hope to fix these one day but debugging the QDSS can be quite difficult. Matt On 19/03/2020 17:38, Supratim Sanyal wrote: > > Very interesting.

Re: [Simh] EXT :Re: Mouse capture on VAXstation II/GPX (KA630) simulator V4.0-0 Current
Very interesting. With "qvss capture" below "cpu model", mouse now works (jumpy, but better than no mouse). Also, I am getting console replies at the top of the graphical desktop, and have lost color. Here's a screenshot.

Re: [Simh] EXT :Re: Mouse capture on VAXstation II/GPX (KA630) simulator V4.0-0 Current
Shouldn’t the configuration order be: set cpu model=vaxstationgpx set qvss enable; if required – I think ‘set cpu model = vaxstationgpx’ does this implicitly set qvss capture There may be some odd interaction if capture mode is enabled before setting vaxstationgpx.
