Date: Mon, 2 Mar 2009 16:27:42 +0200 From: "Mike Gorchak" Subject: About QNX support in SDL 1.3 Right now I'm working on QNX SDL 1.3 drivers implementation and looks like a lot of code must be completely reworked. But I'm ready for it :) Also I want to add QNX Graphics Framework SDL driver, which is fullscreen graphics framework, with support of hardware accelerated OpenGL ES implementations. This Graphics Framework (called GF in QNX) could also use QNX Photon (window manager GUI) as window manager. In the attachment initial patch for QNX support in SDL 1.3

.TH "SDL_DisplayFormatAlpha" "3" "Tue 11 Sep 2001, 23:01" "SDL" "SDL API Reference" 
.SH "NAME"
SDL_DisplayFormatAlpha \- Convert a surface to the display format
.SH "SYNOPSIS"
.PP
\fB#include "SDL\&.h"
.sp
\fBSDL_Surface *\fBSDL_DisplayFormatAlpha\fP\fR(\fBSDL_Surface *surface\fR);
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.PP
This function takes a surface and copies it to a new surface of the pixel format and colors of the video framebuffer plus an alpha channel, suitable for fast blitting onto the display surface\&. It calls \fISDL_ConvertSurface\fR
.PP
If you want to take advantage of hardware colorkey or alpha blit acceleration, you should set the colorkey and alpha value before calling this function\&.
.PP
This function can be used to convert a colourkey to an alpha channel, if the \fBSDL_SRCCOLORKEY\fP flag is set on the surface\&. The generated surface will then be transparent (alpha=0) where the pixels match the colourkey, and opaque (alpha=255) elsewhere\&.
.SH "RETURN VALUE"
.PP
If the conversion fails or runs out of memory, it returns \fBNULL\fR
.SH "SEE ALSO"
