cyclemap(3G)
cyclemap - cycles between color maps at a specified rate
As shipped in IRIX 6.5.22. Unchanged since IRIX 6.5.
NAME cyclemap - cycles between color maps at a specified rate C SPECIFICATION void cyclemap(duration, map, nxtmap) short duration, map, nxtmap; PARAMETERS duration expects the number of vertical traces before switching to the map named by nxtmap. map expects the number of the map to use before completing the number of vertical sweeps specified by duration. nxtmap expects the number of the map to use after completing the number of vertical sweeps specified by duration. DESCRIPTION When the system is in multimap mode, cyclemap allows you to switch from one color map to another after a specified duration. In multimap mode there are 16 color maps, numbered 0-15. You can use cyclemap within a loop if you want to cycle through more than one map. EXAMPLE The code fragment sets up multimap mode and cycle between two maps, leaving map 1 on for ten vertical retraces and map 3 on for five retraces. multimap(); gconfig(); cyclemap(10, 1, 3); cyclemap(5, 3, 1); SEE ALSO blink, gconfig, multimap NOTES This routine is available only in immediate mode and cannot be used in onemap mode. cyclemap is not supported on Iris Entry, Indy, XL, XS, XS24, XZ, Elan and Extreme systems and IRIS-4D RealityEngine systems.
