This Shareware Edition includes the following programs: DGFX.EXE - Graffix for DOS WGFX16.EXE - Graffix for Windows 3.1x WGFX32.EXE - Graffix for Windows 95 and Windows NT AB.EXE - AttriByte, ATF file display utility DOSCLIP.EXE - DosClip, a DOS-to-Windows capture utility DGFX.EXE is included for compatibility with previous versions of Graffix. This program has been superceded by DosClip (DOCLIP .EXE), a DOS TSR utility that works in conjunction with Graffix for Windows to capture to the Windows clipboard the entire screen from graphical DOS applications running full-screen in a DOS session. Use of DosClip is explained in the "Capturing the DOS Screen with DosClip" section of this text file. Graffix for DOS (DGFX.EXE) can capture full-screen text or graphics from DOS applications running in DOS or under Windows to a GIF or a PCX file. Graffix for Windows (WGFX16.EXE or WGFX32.EXE) can capture the entire screen or any rectangular portion from Windows applications to a BMP, GIF, PCX, or TIF file, or send output directly to the printer. For simplicity, the explanations that follow focus first on the Windows version of Graffix (including DosClip), then on Graffix for DOS. Graffix for Windows To run Graffix in Windows 3.1, select "Run" in the Program Mana- ger "File" menu and enter the path to WGFX16.EXE. In Windows 95 and Windows NT, click on the "Run" item in the "Start" menu and enter the path to WGFX32.EXE. Capturing the Windows Screen Graffix for Windows was designed to run minimized in "popup" mode, meaning it will pop up when you press the PrtSc key to capture the entire screen, or Alt+PrtSc to capture the currently active window. You can then save the entire image or any rectangular portion. To return to the application that was interrupted, click on that application's window or minimize Graffix again. You can turn popup mode off by pressing Ctrl+M, or by clicking on "Popup" in the Options menu, which will remove the checkmark next to this menu item. Graffix does not need to be running in order to make a screen capture. Once you have pressed the PrtSc key, you can run Graffix to display the clipboard. You can then save the entire image or crop a rectangular area with the mouse or keyboard before saving to disk. - 3 - To save a captured image to disk, choose the desired format from the File menu. A dialog box will list the files of the selected format in the current directory. You may select one of the files listed or type a new file name in the edit box. You may also switch to another directory or disk drive. Graffix will also display text captured to the clipboard by pressing the PrtSc key while a DOS character-mode application is running full-screen under Windows. Two character sets are avail- able for the display of text, OEM and ANSI, which may be selected from the Options menu. Text can be saved to an ASCII file or to a monochrome graphics file in BMP, GIF, PCX, or TIF format. While in popup mode, Graffix will also pop up when another appli- cation puts onto on the clipboard a bitmap that is compatible with Graffix. The compatible formats are DDB (Device-Dependent Bitmap) and DIB (Device-Independent Bitmap), two commonly-used bitmap formats. If you attempt to save a clipboard bitmap whose format is not one of these two, Graffix will respond with a dialog box that says "No bitmap exists on the clipboard." Because of the internal complexities of the popup feature, Graffix will not allow more than one instance of itself to run. Clicking on the Graffix icon will therefore activate a currently- running instance if one exists, instead of launching a new instance. This property can be put to good use if the Graffix window should become hidden by another window; click its icon in the Start menu to make the Graffix window visible. Capturing the DOS Screen with DosClip Graffix can capture the screen to the Windows clipboard from either a text or a graphical mode DOS application that is running full-screen in a Windows DOS session. Normally, such captures are made by pressing the PrtSc key. However, Windows is not always able to capture the screen to the clipboard from a DOS application that is displaying a full-screen graphical image. In that case, Windows displays the message "Unable to copy screen contents into clipboard." When this occurs, you can still make the capture by activating DosClip, a utility that is included with Graffix for Windows. Before you can use DosClip, you must make it memory-resident in the DOS session before running the DOS graphical application. To do this, first start a DOS session by clicking on the MS-DOS icon in Windows. At the DOS prompt, type dosclip and press Enter. The directory in which dosclip.exe resides should be included in the PATH statement of your autoexec.bat file, otherwise you will have to type the full path to dosclip.exe before pressing Enter. Dosclip will now display the message "DosClip is now memory- resident" on the screen. The message will also indicate whether or not the VESA BIOS extension is present, as DosClip needs this extension to capture SVGA screens. If the VESA BIOS extension is not present, you will need to insert a line in autoexec.bat that - 4 - runs a utility that installs the VESA BIOS extension in RAM. See the documentation for your video card for information about this utility. For a list of the VESA modes supported by DosClip, see the Appendix at the end of this document. After you make DosClip memory-resident in the DOS session, you can run your graphical DOS application. Now, if pressing PrtSc fails to capture a graphical screen to the Windows clipboard, you can activate DosClip by pressing Ctrl+PrtSc. DosClip will signal you with a series of beeps that it is making the capture. After the final beep, you may proceed working in the DOS application and make additional screen captures. Screen captures are saved to a series of sequentially-named temporary files, starting with DSCLP000.BMP. You can make up to 256 captures in a series before the file name cycles from DSCLP255.BMP back to DSCLP000.BMP and starts overwritng files of the same name. You can switch back to Windows at any time by pressing Alt+Esc. Your DOS session will now be running minimized so that you can return to it. Graffix will now open the first temporary file, place the image it contains onto the clipboard, then delete the file. It may be necessary to activate Graffix by clicking on its title bar, if it is not the currently active window. You can now save the clipboard image or do whatever you want with it. To display the next captured image in the series, press Ctrl+N or select "Next DOS capture" from the "Display" menu. After the last capture is displayed, selecting this menu item will display the message "No more DOS captures." You may now return to the DOS session to make additional captures by clicking on the DOS session icon on the taskbar. A new temporary series will begin, starting with DSCLP000.BMP. The temporary BMP files are stored in the default WINDOWS\TEMP directory, unless you specify another directory by setting the TMP environment variable in autoexec.bat. The temporary BMP files created by DosClip are not really useful to any other application besides Graffix, as the images are inverted. Graffix automatically re-inverts the images before displaying them. There is a practical reason for this image inversion; contact the programmer if you need to know the technical details. Although DosClip was designed to run in a Windows DOS session, it is possible to use DosClip on a machine that is running only DOS. In that case, you should include the following line in the DOS autoexec.bat file: set TMP=C:\WINDOWS\TEMP This will enable Graffix to find and display the DosClip temporary BMP files when you start Windows and run Graffix. - 5 - Cropping the Clipboard Image The Graffix display window can scroll the clipboard image hori- zontally and vertically by means of the scroll bars. To mark a rectangular area for cropping, move the cursor to the top-left corner of the desired rectangle, depress the left mouse button, move the cursor to the lower-right corner and release the button. Repeat this procedure to erase the rectangle and draw a new one. The width and height of the rectangle in pixel units will be displayed in the title bar, as will the x,y coordinates of the upper-left (UL) and lower-right (LR) corners of the rectangle. The origin of these coordinates is the upper-left corner of the clipboard image. You can use the keyboard to modify or enter rectangle coordi- nates. To do this, select "Enter coordinates" from the Options menu. The dialog box will allow you to specify the position of the upper-left corner of the rectangle. You can specify the position of the lower-right corner by entering the x and y coordinates or by entering the width and height. You may save the cropped image directly to disk by means of the File menu, or you may capture the rectangle to the clipboard by pressing Ctrl+R or by selecting "Capture rectangle" from the Options menu. To erase the rectangle, press Esc or position the cursor anywhere on the image and click the left mouse button. File Menu Item: Save as BMP Select this menu item to save the contents of the clipboard to an uncompressed Windows Bitmap File with the filename extension BMP. Monochrome, 16-color, 256-color, and 24-bit TrueColor modes are supported. File Menu Item: Save as GIF Select this menu item to save the contents of the clipboard to a CompuServe Graphics Interchange Format file with the filename ex- tension GIF. This format utilizes LZW compression, and supports monochrome, 16, and 256-color modes. GIF does not support 24-bit TrueColor modes. File Menu Item: Save as PCX Select this menu item to save the contents of the clipboard to a PC Paintbrush file with the filename extension PCX. Mono- chrome, 16-color, 256-color, and 24-bit TrueColor modes are supported. - 6 - File Menu Item: Save as TIF Select this menu item to save the contents of the clipboard to a Tagged Image Format file with the extension TIF. Three com- pression modes are available: LZW, PackBits, and no compression, any one of which may be selected from the Options menu. The defaults are LZW for 24-bit TrueColor images, and PackBits for monochrome and palette color images. File Menu Item: Save as TXT Select this menu item to save clipboard text to an ASCII text file. Two character sets are available. The OEM character set is the DOS-compatible IBM extended ASCII character set. The ANSI character set is the one used by Windows. If you save text to a file that already exists, the text will be appended to the file. File Menu Item: Open BMP Select this item from the File menu to open a BMP file and place it onto the clipboard. The image can now be saved in any of the four available formats, or cropped and then saved. Main Menu Item: Display This pull-down menu allows you to select which of the available clipboard formats to display. Normally, Windows will clear the clipboard when the PrtSc key is pressed. However, applications can place a bitmap or text on the clipboard without first clear- ing it, so that text and graphics can coexist. This is the case when you select Open BMP. By default, Graffix will display the format most recently added to the clipboard. Main Menu Item: Options Eleven options are available: Capture rectangle (Ctrl+R) Select this menu item to capture the current rectangle to the clipboard. You must first draw a rectangle with the mouse or by entering coordinates from the keyboard. Clear clipboard (Ctrl+L) Select this menu item to empty the clipboard. Enter coordinates (Ctrl+E) Select this menu item to modify or draw a rectangle by entering its coordinates from the keyboard. The values that appear in the dialog box are those of the current rectangle, if one has been previously entered or drawn with the mouse. If there is no current rectangle, the values default to a rectangle that - 7 - contains the entire client area of the Graffix window. Co- ordinates may be entered that exceed the boundaries of this client area, and may include the entire image on the clipboard, up to a full screen. The origin of the rectangle coordinates is the upper-left corner of the clipboard image. To erase the rectangle, press Esc or click the left mouse button. Invert colors (Ctrl+I) Select this menu item to invert the colors of the image on the clipboard, creating a negative image. The original colors can be restored by selecting this menu item again. Popup mode (Ctrl+M) This is the default mode of Graffix. When minimized or hidden by another window, Graffix will pop up onto the screen whenever a bitmap image or text is put onto the clipboard. Select this menu item to turn popup mode off or back on again. Reverse x-axis (Ctrl+X) Select this menu item to reverse the horizontal axis of the clipboard image. This will result in a mirror image. Reverse y-axis (Ctrl+Y) Select this menu item to reverse the vertical axis of the clipboard image. The effect is the same as flipping a trans- parency over, top-to-bottom, and viewing it from the back. To simulate the effect of turning an image upside-down, it is necessary to reverse both the x and y axes. Stretch bitmap (Ctrl+S) Select this menu item to stretch or compress the clipboard image along the horizontal and/or vertical axes. Dimension limits are 1280 pixels horizontally by 1024 pixels vertically. Text colors. This menu item allows you to choose the displayed colors of clipboard text. The choices are black-on-white (the default) and white-on-black. Text to bitmap (Ctrl+B) Select this menu item to convert clipboard text to a monochrome bitmap image, so that it can be subjected to any of the trans- formation options and/or saved to disk in one of the graphical formats. TIF compression This menu item allows you to select the compression scheme for TIF files. The choices are no compression, PackBits, and LZW (Lempel, Ziv, & Welch). In the Windows 95/NT version of Graffix, two modes of LZW compression are available: LZW 8k and LZW 16k. The k refers to the number of kilobytes of raw - 8 - pixel data compressed into each strip. The conventional strip size in TIF files is 8k, but 16k yields better compression. The defaults are LZW 8k for 24-bit True-Color images, and Pack- Bits for monochrome and palette color images. Main Menu Item: Print Select this menu item to send clipboard text or graphics (full- screen or rectangle) to the printer. Before printing begins, Windows will first present a dialog box that will allow you to select various options, such as resolution and intensity, then Graffix will present a dialog box that will allow you to posi- tion the image on the page and stretch or compress it verti- cally and/or horizontally. Help Menu Online Help is available to explain the features of Graffix, and includes a glossary of terms used in this document. Select "System info" from the Help menu to display the resolution and color capability of the Windows screen driver currently run- ning on your system. Graffix for DOS (DGFX.EXE) Graffix for DOS is a memory-resident utility that captures gra- phics and text-mode screens directly to disk files. It can be activated from within a running DOS application by pressing the "hot key" combination Ctrl+Alt+Space. Graphics screens can be saved to either GIF or PCX files, and text screens to either ASCII or ATF files. The ATF format pre- serves text color attributes. Graffix supports all EGA, VGA, and SVGA gray-scale and color graphics modes, including 16 and 256- color, 24-bit color (VESA modes), monochrome EGA and VGA modes, and text modes up to 132 columns by 60 rows. To minimize memory requirements of this TSR, the old CGA and Hercules graphics modes are not supported. SVGA modes are supported for adapters whose BIOS is VESA-compliant, which includes most SVGA adapters. Using Graffix for DOS Super-VGA modes are supported for video cards that have the VESA BIOS extension. Graffix looks for this extension when you make it resident, and prints a message on the screen indicating whether or not the VESA BIOS extension was found. Some SVGA cards, such as the Video Seven WIN.VGA, require that you run a utility program that installs the VESA BIOS extension in RAM before an application can make calls to the BIOS extension. - 9 - In the case of the Video Seven card, this utility is named V7VESA.COM. Putting V7VESA on a separate line in your AUTO- EXEC.BAT file will automatically load this driver every time you turn on your computer. In the absence of the VESA BIOS extension on SVGA cards, Graffix supports the standard VGA modes, but will terminate and return to the application when it encounters a mode it does not recognize. When Graffix is activated in graphics mode, a prompt for a file name appears at the top of the screen. The cursor is invisible in graphics modes, but you can enter a file name as you would in text mode, and backspace to delete characters you may want to change. If no file name is entered before you press <CR>, Graffix defaults to the file name SAVE#XXX.GIF/PCX, where XXX is the sequential number of the file, and writes the file to the current drive and directory. You may enter the file name with a drive and directory prefix, such as d:\dir\filename, where d represents any drive letter and dir any directory or subdirectory name. The prompt will accept more than one directory in the pre- fix, such as d:\dir\subdir\filename, for a total of up to 23 characters. The file name prompt is drawn with palette number 15 against a background of palette number 0. Occasionally, there may be in- sufficient contrast between these two colors for the prompt to be visible. In that case, simply press p or g to select PCX or GIF, then press <CR> to use the default file name. No file name prompt appears in 24-bit color modes, as some adap- ter cards do not support text output in these modes. Instead, the filename defaults to 24BITxxx.PCX in the current directory, where xxx represents the number in the sequence of files saved. The GIF format does not support 24-bit color. Video games sometimes use "tweaked" graphics modes that are not supported by the BIOS. Graffix may be unable to capture these screens correctly. The time Graffix takes to capture a graphics screen and save it to disk depends on the speed of your computer, the file format chosen, and the graphics mode. A GIF file takes longer to create than a PCX file, because the compression algorithm is more com- plex, resulting in a file that is more compact. The higher the resolution of the graphics mode, the longer it will take to cre- ate the file, because of the greater number of pixels that must be encoded. When the screen capture is completed, Graffix will signal you with a beep. During a SVGA screen capture, Graffix will generate a series of ascending tones; each tone indicates that the video card has switched to a new page of memory. This is to reassure you that the program is indeed processing data, and not hung up in an endless loop. - 10 - Text Mode Screens Text can be saved to either an ASCII file or to an Attribute Text Format file with the extension ATF. An ATF file contains two bytes for each character: the ASCII code and the color attribute. Many DOS applications that run in text mode simulate a graphical interface by utilizing the extended ASCII character set to draw multi-colored menus and dialog boxes. Such a screen can be cap- tured to an ATF file. Graffix includes a DOS utility named AttriByte (AB.EXE) that can display an ATF file in its original colors in a graphical screen mode, so that the Graffix TSR can capture the screen to a GIF or a PCX file. When you run AttriByte from the DOS command line, you will be prompted for the name of an ATF file to display. AB.EXE will then switch the screen to the most suitable graphics mode available on your computer and display the ATF file. Attri- Byte uses VESA modes to display 132-column text, so the VESA BIOS extension should be installed on your computer. If the maximum resolution of your monitor is 1024x768, AttriByte will display 132-column text in VESA BIOS mode 104h, which is only capable of displaying 128 columns. Hence, the four columns on the right of the screen will not be displayed. On 1280x1024 monitors, the full 132 columns will be displayed in VESA mode 106h, which is capable of displaying up to 160 columns of text. You can override AttriByte's choice of screen mode by running AB.EXE with the /x command-line switch. This will cause Attri- Byte to display the ATF file in whatever screen mode happens to be in effect. Therefore, it is necessary to put the screen into the desired graphics mode before running AB.EXE with the /x switch, by means of a screen mode utility such as the one included on the software disk that came with your video card. When AttriByte displays an ATF file, the image will remain on the screen while you activate Graffix for DOS by means of the hot key combination. After you've saved the screen as either GIF or PCX, press any key to return to DOS. If you used the /x switch, the screen will still be in the mode you selected, and the DOS prompt will be superimposed on the image that was displayed. Use the DOS command CLS to clear the screen, or reset the screen to text mode 3 by means of your screen mode utility. When you save a text mode screen to an ASCII file, the text will be appended to a file if you enter the name of a file that al- ready exists. If you do this when you save text to an ATF file, a new file will be created and the existing file deleted. - 11 - Installation - Graffix for DOS To install Graffix for DOS onto your hard disk, copy the files DGFX.EXE and AB.EXE into the directory where you want these files to reside. Then, to install the Graffix for DOS TSR into memory, change to this directory, type DGFX at the DOS prompt and press <Enter>. From any other directory, type the full path to DGFX .EXE at the DOS command line and press <Enter>. If the "path" environment variable in your AUTOEXEC.BAT file includes the drive and directory where DGFX.EXE resides, then you need only type DGFX at the DOS prompt from within any directory before you press <Enter>. To make the Graffix for DOS TSR automatically memory-resident each time you turn on your computer, insert into your AUTOEXEC .BAT file the DOS command line to launch DGFX.EXE, after the line that sets the path. Run DGFX.EXE from the DOS prompt to make the TSR memory-resident. If you do this before launching Windows 3.1 in Enhanced Mode, the TSR can be activated from within any DOS prompt or DOS applica- tion running under Windows. If you run DGFX.EXE from a DOS shell in Windows 3.1 to make the TSR memory-resident, it can be acti- vated only from within that shell and not elsewhere in Windows. In Windows 95, it is preferable to run DGFX.EXE from a DOS shell, in which case the TSR can be activated only from within that shell. It is possible to start Windows 95 in DOS mode (see the Windows documentation), run DGFX.EXE, then type "win" at the command line to launch the Windows interface. This will make it possible to activate the TSR from any DOS application or shell, but this forces DOS compatibility mode which degrades the per- formance of Windows 95. Installation - Graffix for Windows To install the Graffix icon into a group window in Windows 3.1, first create a directory on your hard disk where you want the Graffix files to reside (the DOS manual explains how to do this). Next, copy the files WGFX16.EXE and WGFX.HLP into that directory. Now start Windows and open the program group window into which you want to install the Graffix icon. Next, pull down the File menu in Program Manager and click on New. Select "Program Item" and click OK. The "Program Item Properties" dialog box will now appear. For Description, enter "Graffix." Press the Tab key, and for Command Line, enter the full path to WGFX16.EXE, such as C:\Graffix\WGFX16.EXE. Press the Tab key, and for Working Directory, enter the path to the default directory where you want screen-capture files to be saved. Now click OK, and the Graffix icon will be installed into the group window. - 12 - To install Graffix into the Windows 95 Start Menu, first click the "Start" button. Move the arrow to "Settings." Click "Task- bar." Click "Start Menu Programs," then click "Add." Now enter the path to WGFX32.EXE or select "Browse" to locate the file. Click "Next" and select the folder in which to place the Graffix icon. * * * Registration Graffix (tm) for Windows and DOS, Shareware Edition, v5.0 Copyright 1993-96 AndroSoft (tm).
