ChangeMode v1.0
---------------
I thought of this utility first when I saw that DPaint4.5 coudn't
change the screenmode of an animation. That's weird, today someone
should be able to create an animation in DBL mode, and change it
later (when it's finished) to a genlock-compatible mode. That would
be nice, Lee 'nd Dallas!
"ChangeMode" can be used for any ILBM picture or animation, it will
display the modes that are available and let the user choose one of
them. It is intelligent, t.i. it won't display the modes that can't
be used. When changing the mode of an animation it will only show
the modes that can open a display (overscan) with the screen-width
and height. Pictures however can be assigned to a mode that has a
smaller display than the picture itself; those modes will be
listed together with the display-size - the modes where the screen-
size will be the same as the display-size will be printed in BOLD,
that will make it easier to choose...
Workbench:
Select the "ChangeMode" icon and all the pictures you want to change
the mode of. Then doubleclick ChangeMode or the last picture. You
will be asked to change the mode of all the selected pictures, one
by one.
Shell:
Type "ChangeMode" with the path and name (or pattern) of the ILBM
file(s) you want to change the mode of. All files that fit the
pattern will be tried, t.i. icons won't be recognised until tested.
Example:
> ChangeMode GFX:Pics/#?.pic GFX:Backgrounds/#?.ham8 DF0:pics/#?
The gui isn't very pretty, it's a shell-utility. Maybe I'll change that
in the future, if there's a reason for it. If you can think of anything
else to change.. register! There's no better way to support me.
Don't take public-domain software for granted... if it's worth something,
pay something! Commercial software would have been far more expensive!
-- REGISTER:
----==== REGISTER SERVICE! ====----
If you can afford to support my work by sending me some money
(+/- US$ 40,-) you will receive the latest versions of _ALL_
the PD programs I made for the Amiga, including lots of source.
I will send them to you _twice_, once directly after I received
your letter and once after the time or update you choose.
The disk(s) will include:
Replex, Undelete, Spots(2), Magnum24, Lynx, MCAnim, Worms,
MandAnim, RXShow, WBPat, Delta24, Parking, Faster!, AmigaMind,
ChangeMode, ScreenModeReq, and all the programs I forgot here
and the ones I most certainly will be making in the future...
Send me (something like) this:
