Icon.library: Altre 2 beta che perfezionano sempre di più la famosa libreria per gestire qualsiasi icona AMiGA e non solo su AmigaOS. Tra le novità oltre alla compatibilità con i sistemi basati AFA-OS aggiunge la nuova "icon.library_HM020", per questa versione trovate qui sotto la citazione e l'uso di questa libreria recensita dell'autore:
Here comes my brand new toy: HM020 with HAM8 support! This is, as usual, just a first test version, but it works at least on Workbench with HAM8 screen modes, which can be selected with MUI Sreenmode Preferences only: http://aminet.net/package/util/wb/MUIScrMode1_5
You will also need to install my FullPalette.prefs file in ENVARC:Sys with the required 64 HAM8 base colors (don't change the pens 0-63). Some of the system and MWB colors may look a bit different now, but all the base colors can only have certain RGB values, and so the system and MWB colors 0-7 can't be mapped to their perfect RGB settings. For the last 4 colors it's even more difficult to find good compromises. Better remap bad looking MWB icons to the pens 4-7: http://aminet.net/package/util/app/FixMWB
DOpus5 has no real support for HAM screens. It only works when you choose the display setting "Use Workbench", and only with the native Amiga HAM8 screens, not with SuperPlus or HighGfx, which can be used on Workbench, too. On WB 3.0/3.1 it seems that the NewIcons patch can't make the borders transparent anymore. I have to check that.
PS. This and the next full Aminet release are dedicated to Eva (Kira), because she is mobbed very badly by Mr. "gehtjanix", who believes that her identity is just a fake. He wants to destroy her life now, although I've ask him to stop this kind of witch hunting. I'm sure that Eva is a real(ly) nice young woman, unfortunately too young and beautiful for an old and ill man like me. So this is just a small gift for her AGA Amiga
