Screen Calls

  • AddScreenGroup() Adds a screen group to the display.
  • CreateScreenGroup() Creates a screen group and all its screens, bitmaps, buffers, and VDLs.
  • DisplayScreen() Displays the bitmap(s) of the specified screen (or screens).
  • RemoveScreenGroup() Removes a screen group from the display.

VDL Calls

  • SetVDL() Sets a screen to display a specific VDL.
  • SubmitVDL() Submits a VDL for approval by the 3DO system.
  • ModifyVDL() Changes one or more attributes of a VDL.

Screen Color Calls

  • MakeCLUTColorEntry() Packs a color index and red, green, and blue values into a single word.
  • MakeCLUTBlueEntry() Packs a color index and blue values into a single word.
  • MakeCLUTGreenEntry() Packs a color index and green values into a single word.
  • MakeCLUTRedEntry() Packs a color index and red values into a single word.
  • SetScreenColor() Sets a color in the 3DO system's color palette.
  • SetScreenColors() Sets a number of colors in the 3DO system's color palette.

Drawing Calls

  • DrawTo() Draws a line from the GrafCon's current position to a specified position.
  • FillRect() Draws a filled rectangle.
  • GetPixelAddress() Gets a pointer to the pixel at the specified GrafCon coordinates.

  • MoveTo() Moves the pen position of a GrafCon to a new location.
  • SetBGPen() Sets the background pen of a GrafCon.
  • SetFGPen() Sets the foreground pen of a GrafCon.
  • WritePixel() Writes a pixel to a bitmap in a GrafCon's foreground color.

Text Calls
