6.19 Copy raster form

Name:

»Copy raster form«

Line-A number:

$A00E

Syntax:

See 'Bindings for copy_raster'

Description:

This Line-A function corresponds exactly to the VDI function vro_cpyfm (Copy raster, Opaque). Merely some fields of the contrl field are not set, as no VDI workstation needs to be open. Therefore one should refer to the documentation of the VDI function. The following Line-A variables are used:

Variable	Meaning

patptr	Can contain a pointer to a pattern
multifill	0 if the pattern has only one plane, and 1 for several planes
copy_tran	Set to 0 for opaque copying (source and destination have the same number of colour planes) or to 1 for transparent copying (destination is copied to one colour plane)

Note: The binding from Turbo C does not support this function.

Return value:

The function does not return a result.

Availability:

All TOS versions.
