Many thanks to the people who sent responses to my last
set of questions. Now I've got a few more - mostly about
Intuition:
1. There is no support in Intuition for drawing
an Image structure in something like "COMPLEMENT"
mode for IntuiText. I COULD use DrawImage() and
then something like DrawRect() (I forget the name)
in COMPLEMENT mode, but this would probably flash
the display. I would prefer to use the graphics
functions to take the same data from my Image
structure and draw it in whatever mode I like,
but I can't find any simple graphics function(s)
to do this. (Do I have to use QBlit?).
2. I would like to make a "fader" Gadget that looks a little
bit more interesting than the ones I've been able to
get Intuition to produce. I already have my own knob
image, but it still has a bland looking border
around the select box and I can't seem to put any pattern
in the slider area (the knob will just erase it). While
I'm usually against comparing, the M*C programs I've seen
usually have more aesthetically pleasing proportional gadgets.
Any suggestions?
3. Is there a "canned" function to print the screen to
the printer somewhere? If not, any PD source examples?
Thanks for any help ....
