cyclemap(3G) — IRIX 6.5.3f



cyclemap(3G)                                                      cyclemap(3G)



NAME
     cyclemap - cycles between color maps at a specified rate

C SPECIFICATION
     void cyclemap(duration, map, nxtmap)
     short duration, map, nxtmap;

PARAMETERS
     duration   expects the number of vertical traces before switching to the
                map named by nxtmap.

     map        expects the number of the map to use before completing the
                number of vertical sweeps specified by duration.

     nxtmap     expects the number of the map to use after completing the
                number of vertical sweeps specified by duration.

DESCRIPTION
     When the system is in multimap mode, cyclemap allows you to switch from
     one color map to another after a specified duration.  In multimap mode
     there are 16 color maps, numbered 0-15. You can use cyclemap within a
     loop if you want to cycle through more than one map.

EXAMPLE
     The code fragment sets up multimap mode and cycle between two maps,
     leaving map 1 on for ten vertical retraces and map 3 on for five
     retraces.

          multimap();
          gconfig();
          cyclemap(10, 1, 3);
          cyclemap(5, 3, 1);

SEE ALSO
     blink, gconfig, multimap

NOTES
     This routine is available only in immediate mode and cannot be used in
     onemap mode.

     cyclemap is not supported on Iris Entry, Indy, XL, XS, XS24, XZ, Elan and
     Extreme systems and IRIS-4D RealityEngine systems.
