Jim,
Cathy Godfrey's solution to my screen resolution query in the flow worked.
I had two resolutions in my test flow — some pixes with 320,200 res and
some with 736,480 oscan. I used a variables icon positioned just after
the screen icon that displayed the pix thus:
objset("AVSystem.Pointer","LeftEdge",640)
objset("AVSystem.Pointer","LeftEdge",200)
objset("AVSystem.Pointer","Actions","ClickLeft")
Then I used a second variables icon:
ResX=screenx()
ResY=screeny()
Based on the values of ResX and RexY I was able to determine what the
resolution of the currently displayed pix was. One note: while the lores
pixes gave the proper values of 319,199 the Hires Oscan values were
723,439. While not completely accurate (or I did something wrong), it was
sufficient to allow my test routine to determine that there was something
other than a lores pix on the screen and act accordingly with the properly
sized brush. While not as simple as CanDo's query, it nonetheless does
the job.

John,
GOOD – thanks for sharing your information about "peeking and poking"
using AmigaVision. I don't know if all of the Amiga MultiMedia forum-ites
are also "watching this show", so maybe you might want to also post this
information (in a file) in the MultiMedia forum, Amiga section? It seems
to be VERY sparse (the library, that is)! It might even be nice if you
would upload a simple FLOW file with your "discoveries" in them for others
to test/try (create an Application Disk and then compress it).

Sounds like a good idea. I'll do so shortly.
John,
Good – and thanks again for ferreting out the secrets of AV-Pro.

Hello, Can someone tell me how I can play a MOD or Sonix music file in Amig
avision while I have an animation playing? DMCS music is to old and hard to
use. I understand that AV pro does not have this music feature upgraded.
Best thing I can think of is to have AV launch a 3rd party player program, such
as edplayer.
Edplayer has a REXX port that can be used to load, start and stop MOD's.
Ronald,
AmigaVison Pro does support MIDI (type 0?) directly, but requires the
Execute ICON to "play" a MOD (via a suitable MOD "player" (such as
DeliTracker)) or Sonix music file (there IS a "Sonix Player" module which
you will need, and should be in one of the libs here).
Once you have the appropriate "player" programs, you will need to decide
whether you want/need to start the ANIM first (with NO pause) or start the
music playback first (with NO pause). You may have to insert a WAIT ICON
to assist in establishing any specific timing requirements.
