Replaces: cybergfx4047.lha
The cybergraphics system was designed to define an independant graphics
standard for graphics boards. We also wanted to continue our development
of workbench emulations. We could include all our knowledge of about 3 years
of gfx board software development (wb-emulation of visiona, domino, picasso
and now the cybervision64).
cybergraphics is based on hardware dependant monitor drivers and hardware
independant libraries. This has some advantages: Bug fixes in the workbench
emulation or speed optimizations is of benefit for ALL gfx boards that are
supported by the cybergraphics system. There is no third like XpERT or
Village-Tronic inbetween developers and users. That guarantees bug fixes
and continued development of the software in the future.
cybergraphics allows using of 15/16/24 screens independant of the used
color model. You are able to use the cybergraphics.library functions to
modify this screens. Using graphics.library functions is currently not
possible but this may change in one of the next releases.
Currently there are versions for Domino, PicassoII, GVP Spectrum, Piccolo Z2/3
,RetinaZ3 and PiccoloSD64
NOTE: If you are already runing CyBERgraphics, then use the
"Quick Update (New Libs & Drivers only)" option in the installer.
This is the default!
Currently when "Quick Update (New Libs & Drivers only)" mode is selected,
it will not update the new 'CVMode 1.3' and the new RetinaZ3 Monitor driver
1.3. If you wish you can move these by hand.
Revision V40.49 (changes since 40.47)
-------------------------------------
- changed the way ReadPixel() works on non clut screens.
MatchPenColour now scans palette in reverse order in order
to fix some problems.
- CygnusED EOF marker is now shown correctly
- pctask text modes now show up correctly under cybergraphics
(inverse text before)
- fixed jam2 line pattern bugs
- fixed "pointer gets square" bug when screen was dragged down
too far. Some machines even crashed ......
(- added faster text output ) <- disabled in 40.49 (to be revised)
RetinaZ3 Revision V1.3 (changes since 1.1)
------------------------------------------
- added colorfill support
- added support for VCode Retina Switch
- added Blitter & Template calls
CVMode 1.3 (changes since 1.1)
------------------------------
- Oops, "Restore last saved" was a NOOP :-)
- New CLI option "ADVANCED". When this option is used CVMode won't check
the vertical parameters for a mode. It only displays the vertical
frequency in a different color, when it is outside the range of the
monitors capabilities.
- New project menu entry "Save As..."
- New key 'm' in Test Screen mode: Switch Mode Information On/Off
