Garbled gfx on AmigaOS compatibles with certain file

Re: How to find out the currently selected display?

I think it's the safest to end a previous selection before it returns to the main loop if it's something else than a display...

Re: How to find out the currently selected display?

I guess you have searched the documentation pretty well, and I didn't see anything with a very quick look either. Maybe something like this as a work-around: Function p_GetSelectedDisplay() Local type, id = GetAttribute(#DISPLAY, 0, #ATTROUTPUTDEVICE) If type = #DISPLAY Then Return(id) Else Return(-...

Re: Execution of external program or data file

However, I'm wondering if it's possible to execute a program associated with a PDF document in MorphOS the same way it works for me on MacOS. Execute document.pdf opens the program with the loaded document on the Mac, but not on MorphOS. On MorphOS you should use the Open shell command. It opens fi...

Local t, c = GetObjects(#MUSIC) For Local i = 0 To c - 1 If IsMusicPla...
