#Layers Anyone??
There are several reasons why I don't want to use the console. One of
which is performance. I would rather work directly with IDCMP messages
than to shoot serial data streams to the console input. I would prefer to
code it myself like you mentioned, It's just that VERY LITTLE
dosumentation exists that explain a simple way to deal with clipping
rectangles.
Actually, what I'm trying to do is to smooth scroll text in a smaller
section of an ordinary Intuition window. The smaller area (smooth
scrolling part) is surrounded by gadgets, so a strict clipping rectangle
is in order.
I'm trying to use the Layers in SuperBitmap mode because I have access to
the scrolling routines which are VERY FAST. Remember, I'm after
PERFORMANCE!!
(sigh) the search goes on……
