/FHQ13: Can text and graphics be displayed at the same time with Hercules?/FB
Yes, as long as 90x43 mode display mode is used. If the graphics bleeds
through from the background, you can switch to 80x25 mode.
However, there is no way to detect whether or not the Hercules card is
currently in text or graphics mode if a program switches between these
two modes by manipulating the registers of the card. In this case
DESQview will not notice that the graphics mode has changed. Quarterdeck
has put a utility DVHERC on the distribution disk that is intended to
help users switch to the correct mode in such events. DVHERC is a TSR
program. However DESQview can sometimes be very stubborn and will not
recognize this change. In such cases it will again switch to the wrong
mode as soon as one switches to a different window.
