Setting Pixels

As I gather from Ken Ray's very useful article "Understanding ImageData, MaskData and AlphaData", "...you don't set SPECIFIC PARTS of imageData..., you set these properties as a whole." >From the examples, this seems to mean in practice that if I want to change a single pixel in an image I need t

Setting Pixels - Congratulations Monte!

Monte has beat us ALL to the punch! Making his recommended alterations to the little test routine shows us that there is no substitute for a good knowledge of the timing aspects of the Transcript language. The timings on my machine are similar to his. Thanks Monte! So now I can apply all that has

For those of you who are interested in graphics, I DO suggest you try Monte's custom paint tool for simply drawing squiggly lines with the mouse. In terms of coding, and since Monte has proved to us all that he is quite good at this kind of thing, I think that this routine is probably about as effi

I have just run a test and have successfully substituted the icon in a Revolution executable for one of 16 million colours. I used a very simple but well-prepared freeware utility known as "Resource Hacker". If anyone would like to confirm the results of my experiment, this software can be download

Hasty apologies to everyone! The Revolution EXE doesn't run any more after the icon change (pity I didn't think of testing it before opening my big mouth). Anyway, I'm going to play around with the "Resource Hacker" to see if I can get it to work. ___ u

It seems that the Resource Hacker CAN susbstitute the Revolution EXE icon for one of 256 colours (32x32 pixels), but I have not tested it sufficiently to discover whether it works with all programs. When you open the EXE prog in Resource Hacker it shows you 2 "Icon Groups". If you DELETE the 2nd i

Ken: Well, it seems that your experience is a little different to mine. Congratulations. Sorry to ask what might be a silly question, but did you make sure that the EXE still runs OK? The Resource Hacker substitutes with any icon you like, and it shows up beautifully just sitting there in the Windo

http://www.users.on.net/johnson/resourcehacker/ In my limited experience, you can successfully substitute the Rev icon for one of 256 colours (32x32 pixels) or one of 16M colours (16x16 pixels). (Other icons can be inserted - e.g. 16M colours 32x32 pixels - but they damage the executable file so t
