Fixed bug #898 Jeremiah Morris 2009-12-09 16:07:17 PST No-op GlobalToLocal translations in fullscreen mode On my MacBook Pro running 10.6, I noticed a small upward bias on mouse movement in a fullscreen SDL application. The app uses WarpCursor and GetMouseState in a loop to measure relative movement. I tracked it down to NSWindow's convertBaseToScreen: routine, which added a 2-pixel offset on the Y coordinate instead of the expected (+0,+0) translation. In fullscreen mode, QZ_PrivateWarpCursor() does not translate the desired position through QZ_PrivateGlobalToLocal() before passing it to the Core Graphics system. However, QZ_GetMouseLocation() does call the reverse QZ_PrivateLocalToGlobal() even in fullscreen mode. This asymmetry caused problems each time the mouse was moved.

.TH "SDL_LockSurface" "3" "Tue 11 Sep 2001, 23:01" "SDL" "SDL API Reference" 
.SH "NAME"
SDL_LockSurface \- Lock a surface for directly access\&.
.SH "SYNOPSIS"
.PP
\fB#include "SDL\&.h"
.sp
\fBint \fBSDL_LockSurface\fP\fR(\fBSDL_Surface *surface\fR);
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.PP
\fBSDL_LockSurface\fP sets up a surface for directly accessing the pixels\&. Between calls to \fBSDL_LockSurface\fP and \fBSDL_UnlockSurface\fP, you can write to and read from \fBsurface->\fBpixels\fR\fR, using the pixel format stored in \fBsurface->\fBformat\fR\fR\&. Once you are done accessing the surface, you should use \fBSDL_UnlockSurface\fP to release it\&.
.PP
Not all surfaces require locking\&. If \fBSDL_MUSTLOCK\fP(\fBsurface\fR) evaluates to \fB0\fR, then you can read and write to the surface at any time, and the pixel format of the surface will not change\&. 
.PP
No operating system or library calls should be made between lock/unlock pairs, as critical system locks may be held during this time\&.
.PP
It should be noted, that since SDL 1\&.1\&.8 surface locks are recursive\&. This means that you can lock a surface multiple times, but each lock must have a match unlock\&. 
.PP

.SH "RETURN VALUE"
.PP
\fBSDL_LockSurface\fP returns \fB0\fR, or \fB-1\fR if the surface couldn\&'t be locked\&.
