- version 1.1
-
- What is it?
- -----------
-
- TestPatterns.loader is a simple loader that gives you a choice of:
-
- Colour Bars 1
- Colour Bars 2
- Cross Hatch
- Linearity
- Dots
- Grey Scale
- Frequency Response
- Centering
-
- Thanks to Martin Boyd for suggesting Colour Bars 2.
-
- All of which are useful for lining up monitors. The selected image gets
- loaded straight into OpalPaint.
-
-
- Credits
- -------
-
- Thanks must go to Carmen Rizzolo for beta testing this in NTSC and making
- some very good suggestions. Also thanks to Martin Boyd (author of
- OpalPaint) for his help and feedback whilst writing this.
-
- Internet - what a resource!!!
-
-
- Installing
- ----------
-
- Installing TestPatterns.loader is a breeze!
-
- Just copy it to OpalLoaders:
-
- Don't change it's name or it may not be recognized by OpalPaint.
-
- If you are using OpalPaint 2.3 or higher, it should automatically be
- recognized by OpalPaint.
-
- If however you are using an earlier version you will need to run the
- program RemoveLSI to remove all loaders from the system, and then run the
- program InstallLSI to re-install the loaders but also include TestPatterns.
-
- If you don't have RemoveLSI or InstallLSI they are on Aminet:
-
- Directory: gfx/board
- File : lsidocs.lha (I'm not sure of the case?)
-
-
- Operation
- ---------
-
- If you have installed it correctly you should be able to right click on the
- Load Image icon and see a list of loaders available to OpalPaint.
-
- Click on TEST PATTERNS.
-
- A requester should now be displayed. Simply click on the test pattern you
- want and then click on OK. Use CANCEL to abort the loader. You can also
- double click on a button and it is the same as clicking a button and then
- clicking OK.
-
- That's it...... easy huh???
-
-
- Disclaimer
