- It was on the night of 27-Dec-97, when no creatures were stirring, and all was
- silent. Suddenly, Jens jumped out from behind a rock and wouldnt stop shouting
- about "Re: Inituition.." until I was forced to knock them out:
- »-> On 27-Dec-97, geosync@ozemail.com.au smashed the keyboard with:
- »-> >Hi Jens,
-
- »-> >You say you can open an AGA screen with AMOS, GUI and OSDevKit?
-
- »-> YES, but the key is the OSDevKit, the GUI just handles my requesters as
- »-> they are very difficult to write in the OSDevKit..
-
- The test version of the GUI extension (which is due for public release not
- too long from now) fully handles AGA and any graphics card screenmodes
- selectable in an ASL screenmode requester. It blows away the OS Devkit, and
- all the others!!
-
- »-> If you'd like something simpler to open AGA screens then drop by the
- »-> AmiNET and look in the 'dev/amos' there's an extension called
- »-> 'intuition' it's also capable of opening AGA screens and uses full
- »-> intuition. Unfortunaly the docs are not even half-finnished, but some
- »-> good examples comes along and makes it a little easier to use. The only
- »-> problem with THAT extension is that it's not capable of setting colours
- »-> in AGA notification, it only uses the old fassion 4bit setting, while
- »-> the OSDevKit can set the colours in 32bit (AGA standard)...
-
- The GUI extension allows you to change the colours of any screenmode, just
- as easily, if not easier, than regular AMOS screens. Keep your eyes peeled
- for the new public release!!
-
- »-> I've also heard that the next version of GUI is capable of opening AGA
- »-> screens but I've not seen it yet...
-
- Its true. I can send a compiled demo if you want. I have one here which
- demonstrates the use of bobs on an intuition screen (about 650/sec on a 32
- colour Superhires-Interlaced screen).
