ggiSetTextMode(3)
NAME
ggiSetTextMode, ggiSetGraphMode, ggiSetSimpleMode - Set a specific type
of mode on a visual [DEPRECATED]
SYNOPSIS
#include <ggi/ggi.h> int ggiSetTextMode(ggi_visual_t visual, int cols, int rows, int vcols, int vrows, int fontx, int fonty, ggi_graphtype type); int ggiSetGraphMode(ggi_visual_t visual, int x, int y, int xv, int yv, ggi_graphtype type); int ggiSetSimpleMode(ggi_visual_t visual, int xsize, int ysize, int frames, ggi_graphtype type);
DESCRIPTION
- Important: These functions are DEPRECATED and may be removed
from a future version of GGI.
- ggiSetTextMode, ggiSetGraphMode and ggiSetSimpleMode are convenient versions of ggiSetMode(3) that take the mode parameters as integer arguments rather than as a ggi_mode(3) struct that the application has to fill out. Otherwise, they are functionally equivalent to ggiSetMode(3) function, and the same mode-setting semantics apply, except the changed ggi_mode(3) cannot be seen.
RETURN VALUE
The functions return 0 if the mode is set successfully, otherwise an
ggi-error(3) code.
NOTES
Do not set a mode before checking it. You may be able to set up a certain mode on one target, but not other targets.
See the example in ggiCheckMode(3).
