- * POINTERA_XOffset (LONG) - X-offset of the pointer hotspot.
- * POINTERA_YOffset (LONG) - Y-offset of the pointer hotspot.
- * POINTERA_WordWidth (ULONG) - designed width of the pointer in words

- * POINTERYRESN_HIGH
- * POINTERYRESN_HIGHASPECT
- * = Where the hardware/software supports it, the pointer resolution
- * will be high. This means there will be about 400-480 pointer
- * lines per screen. POINTERYRESN_HIGHASPECT also means that
- * when the pointer comes out double-height due to hardware/software
- * restrictions, its width would be doubled as well, if possible
- * (to preserve aspect).
- *
- * POINTERYRESN_SCREENRES
- * POINTERYRESN_SCREENRESASPECT
- * = Will attempt to match the vertical resolution of the pointer
- * to the screen's vertical resolution. POINTERYRESN_SCREENASPECT also

- * hardware/software restrictions, its width would be doubled as well,

- { Compatibility note:
- *
- * The AA chipset supports variable sprite width and resolution, but
- * the setting of width and resolution is global for all sprites.
- * When no other sprites are in use, Intuition controls the sprite
- * width and sprite resolution for correctness based on pointerclass
- * attributes specified by the creator of the pointer. Intuition
- * controls sprite resolution with the VTAG_DEFSPRITERESN_SET tag
- * to VideoControl(). Applications can override this on a per-viewport
- * basis with the VTAG_SPRITERESN_SET tag to VideoControl().
- *
- * If an application uses a sprite other than the pointer sprite,
- * Intuition will automatically regenerate the pointer sprite's image in
- * a compatible width. This might involve BitMap scaling of the imagery
- * you supply.
- *
- * If any sprites other than the pointer sprite were obtained with the
- * old GetSprite() call, Intuition assumes that the owner of those
- * sprites is unaware of sprite resolution, hence Intuition will set the
- * default sprite resolution (VTAG_DEFSPRITERESN_SET) to ECS-compatible,
- * instead of as requested by the various pointerclass attributes.
- *
- * No resolution fallback occurs when applications use ExtSprites.
- * Such applications are expected to use VTAG_SPRITERESN_SET tag if
- * necessary.
- *
- * NB: Under release V39, only sprite width compatibility is implemented.
- * Sprite resolution compatibility was added for V40.
