- We are porting a program from a VGX platform to a Crimson/RealityEngine,
- and have been finding it difficult to make full use of the 4096-entry
- colormap when lrectwrite'ing 8-bit images.
-
- Specifically, we suspect that the call
-
- pixmode( PM_ADD24, 256 );
-
- on the RealityEngine, is the problem.
-
-
- In fact, any integer offset greater than 0 produces anomalous behavior.
-
- The pixmode manual page claims that "Pixel addition can...
- be used to offset the range of a color map image",
- and our code works fine on VGX and Indigo Elan machines.
-
- Any hints or suggestions, posted or mailed, would be appreciated.
- Thanks!
