Fixed bug #798 kty@lavabit.com 2009-09-19 14:19:04 PDT The stable release of SDL 1.2.13 for BeOS/Haiku has a bug in BE_FindClosestFSMode that causes it to sometimes not select the best mode when going fullscreen. There are in fact two bugs in the implementation but I will not go into specifics because there is already a patch for it in the developer SVN 1.3. However I am still reporting it because I believe the following code is a better patch for the issue. The current implementation on SVN only works if it is able to find an exact match for the requested mode. However, by scanning from lowest-to-highest resolution instead of highest-to-lowest, one can find the best mode at all times

.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.PP
\fBSDL_JoyBallEvent\fR is a member of the \fI\fBSDL_Event\fR\fR union and is used when an event of type \fBSDL_JOYBALLMOTION\fP is reported\&.
.PP
A \fBSDL_JOYBALLMOTION\fP event occurs when a user moves a trackball on the joystick\&. The field \fBwhich\fR is the index of the joystick that reported the event and \fBball\fR is the index of the trackball (for a more detailed explaination see the \fIJoystick section\fR)\&. Trackballs only return relative motion, this is the change in position on the ball since it was last polled (last cycle of the event loop) and it is stored in \fBxrel\fR and \fByrel\fR\&.
