Hi,
I have an 8-bit fbgen implementation, and i'd like to use microwin ontop
of it...........
so as i understand, i should set SCREEN_PIXTYPE to MWPF_TRUECOLOR0888,
then use fbset to change depth.
however, when try to draw truetype fonts(freetype1.3.1) after fbset
-depth 8, always fails on assert (c < nccolors)........it seems that the
compile time MWPF_TRYECOLOR0888 will set the pixelvar2colorvar always as
ulong, thus the c value could easily bigger than ncolor (2^8 = 0x100)???
anybody noticed the similar problem? any advice?
Thanx
Harry
