Subject: Re: [SDL] New XFree 4.3 Video Mode Patch
I have a wee amendment that moves the qsort in set_best_resolution
to only occur after failing to find an exact match only. This would
make absolutely sure we get a user set mode.
While I've never had any problems for my normal resolutions (1280x1024,
1024x768, 800x600 & 640,480) while closely examining the output from
qsort I've noticed it doesn't seem to sort the modes fully. These is
one definite wrong at 1152x768 and a few that just look wrong to me.
From a program (attached) I made to examine this more easily. X has
sorted its mode list using the same method as ours (plus frequency),
and our user modes get inserted without any other movement.
On the patch I've made I've also changed cmpmodes to sort on vertical
resolution and then horizontal. Ie vertical is now most significant
bit.

8 \fBint \fBSDL_SetPalette\fP\fR(\fBSDL_Surface *surface, int flags, SDL_Color *colors, int firstcolor, int ncolors\fR); |
| 0 | 9 .SH "DESCRIPTION" |
| 10 .PP | |
| 11 Sets a portion of the palette for the given 8-bit surface\&. | |
| 12 .PP | |
| 13 Palettized (8-bit) screen surfaces with the \fBSDL_HWPALETTE\fP flag have two palettes, a logical palette that is used for mapping blits to/from the surface and a physical palette (that determines how the hardware will map the colors to the display)\&. \fISDL_BlitSurface\fR always uses the logical palette when blitting surfaces (if it has to convert between surface pixel formats)\&. Because of this, it is often useful to modify only one or the other palette to achieve various special color effects (e\&.g\&., screen fading, color flashes, screen dimming)\&. | |
| 14 .PP | |
| 15 This function can modify either the logical or physical palette by specifing \fBSDL_LOGPAL\fP or \fBSDL_PHYSPAL\fPthe in the \fBflags\fR parameter\&. | |
| 16 .PP | |
| 17 When \fBsurface\fR is the surface associated with the current display, the display colormap will be updated with the requested colors\&. If \fBSDL_HWPALETTE\fP was set in \fISDL_SetVideoMode\fR flags, \fBSDL_SetPalette\fP will always return \fB1\fR, and the palette is guaranteed to be set the way you desire, even if the window colormap has to be warped or run under emulation\&. | |
| 18 .PP | |
| 19 The color components of a \fI\fBSDL_Color\fR\fR structure are 8-bits in size, giving you a total of 256^3=16777216 colors\&. | |
| 20 .SH "RETURN VALUE" | |
| 21 .PP | |
| 22 If \fBsurface\fR is not a palettized surface, this function does nothing, returning \fB0\fR\&. If all of the colors were set as passed to \fBSDL_SetPalette\fP, it will return \fB1\fR\&. If not all the color entries were set exactly as given, it will return \fB0\fR, and you should look at the surface palette to determine the actual color palette\&. | |
