Date: Thu, 13 Sep 2001 14:14:42 -0400 From: "David Chait" <davebytes@hotmail.com> Subject: sdlmods.zip -- Message: 502 -- Next: 503 N -------------------------------------------- now bracketed with (MWERKS && macintosh), so it'll work under metrowerks under any kind of mac build. Project Builder probably uses pack properly as it is GCC under the covers, so not worrying about it... :) it sets packing to 68K 4-byte alignment, and turns on enumsalwaysint. resets them both to project defaults when done. note that if a project sets these things in a header and expects the settings to last throughout a C file (which is a nasty thing to do), it won't work. I think there's an overall-state push/pop system, but it's a deprecated interface so I'm loathe to use it...

.SH "NAME"
SDL_DisplayFormat\- Convert a surface to the display format
.SH "SYNOPSIS"
.PP
\fB#include "SDL\&.h"
.sp
\fBSDL_Surface *\fBSDL_DisplayFormat\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, 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
If you want an alpha channel, see \fISDL_DisplayFormatAlpha\fR\&.
.SH "RETURN VALUE"
.PP
If the conversion fails or runs out of memory, it returns \fBNULL\fR
.SH "SEE ALSO"
