Has anyone had any luck playing with diwstart (or is it diwstrt?). My idea is that you could get the screen to appear to be moving back and forth, and/or waving (if done correctly) by using this. Am I correct? Is there some other way of doing this? -- =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= - Worcester Polytechnic Institute|"It happens sometimes, people just explode, - = Worcester, MA (IBM for summer) | natural causes." -Repo Man = -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-

Am I correct? >Is there some other way of doing this? I believe that Bryce Nesbit wrote a Badge0 entry called WaveBench that did exactly this. You can probably find this on a fish disk, if not there is a file on kilowatt "badge0 wavebench.shar" that you might want to check out. If this is the program I am thinking of, you will be amazed at what the Amiga allows you to do with the copper. Byrce set up a asm/copper program that created a wave action on the workbench screen. The hard part about the demo was trying to hit the close gadget on the moving screen! Source is not included in the kilowatt shar, so you might want to find the fish disk. --- Steve -Raz- Berry Disclaimer: I didn't do nutin!
