- This is the “commercial quality” version of FracApp. This version
- handles multiple documents, and it supports color table animation
- using an off-screen gDevice with a port. The updates to the
- screen using _CopyBits are as fast as possible. FracApp does not
- use the Palette Manager, except to provide for the system palette,
- or color modes with less than 255 colors. For the color table
- animation, it uses the Color Manager and handles the colors
- itself. Strict compatibility was relaxed to allow for a higher
- performance program. This is the most “real” of the FracApp
- programs.
-
- As color on the Macintosh evolves, we hope that future versions of
- this program will be able to use the Palette Manager and maintain
- the level of performance. To achieve this, we will have to attain
- better QuickDraw (i.e., _CopyBits) and Palette Manager
- integration.
