AROS Mouse Pointer

Post by djrikki »

Hi,

Hopefully some of the people who have already made ports for AROS can help me out here.

When I compile Jack for AROS the mouse point is messed up/skewed. I am using the AISS mouse pointers.. are they too big for AROS or something? What is the max w/h of a AROS/OS3.1 mouse pointer?

When I last checked, the AROS API didn't support true colour mouse pointers. Thus, OS3 limitations apply (4 colors, max. size 32x32 pixels). Maybe you should nag the AROS team about this so that they extend the APIs...

Thanks Andreas. Guess I'll have to find a temporary solution, in the mean time a 'Nag' has been sent.

Well I copied the AISS pointers, resized them to 32x32 and posterised them to 4 colours using Gimp and now I have something that at the very least resembles a mouse pointer :)

However, its one colour (red) and 1/2 the size :lol: :lol:
