Hi! Where does the frame buffer live in memory? Does it occupy the same memory as regular video pages? |

Test the command "mm.info(page address framebuffer)" Edit: Or maybe not. With or without framebuffer defined, it returns the same as "mm.info(page address 0)" I guess it's a request for matherp. Maybe a loop peeking through all of memory could find it ... Edited 2020-08-17 13:04 by vegipete Visit Vegipete's *Mite Library for cool programs. |

The framebuffer is allocated in variable memory when the create command is used. A second copy is allocated when the backup command is used. The position in memory is dependent on other variable use before the framebuffer command. It is not fixed. I'll include in the next beta (V5.05.05b11) to give its address Edited 2020-08-17 18:14 by matherp |
