Yep, my bad. It only the DesktopFrequency() that doesn't support Linux. I think I've been staring at my monitor for too long. I'm going outside for fresh air.

It was unsupported in PB5.0, so is it in 5.1 that it works? Or do I have it wrong? The documentation says it's only for Windows & OSX.

Hi,

Does anyone know how to get the current display resolution under Linux? I'm guessing it's going to involve importing C and doing X11 API junk since ExamineDesktop() doesn't work.
Any help would be hugely appreciated.

Cheers,

I'd be keen to learn how to do this also so I'm giving this a bump in case someone now knows.

Hi Again,

I thought I'd show how I also mangled your example since it's also having a strange side-affect now. I'm trying to tell it to show the mouse pointer on camera 0 only and now there is no mouse at all on either camera ...

Hey,

That's really odd. Your example works as expected and it's a very simple thing to code. SO simple, I must be overlooking something but for the life of me, I can't see why it isn't working in my code. I tried mangling your example to break it and I can't so what the hell am I overlooking ...

Hi all,

I'm using a 3D GUI in my little project that I only want to be displayed on Camera 0. My second camera (1) shouldn't display the GUI at all as it's used as a top-down map view of the playfield.
Currently, I have:
ShowGUI(32, #False,0,#True)
ShowGUI(255, #False,1,#False)
My understanding ...

Awesome suggestion Comtois, thanks. I do notice that no matter what, my Text3D stays in front of the plane. This happens even if I move the text back through the Z coord.

Fred may have a different approach here but I've changed the title to include [Invalid] since it's not a bug.

Hi Comtois,

You are bang on with your answer. Ive changed my code as per your comments and it's working great.
Thanks for you help, much appreciated.

Cheers,

Hi,

I'm prototyping a game at the moments and I have two 3D scenes. The first is the title screen and the second is the game scene. When the player presses starts, I would like to fade the scene to white or black (or any other colour for that matter) but I can't think of a way to do this other than ...

+1 your awesomeness! Thanks team!

I've upgraded from beta 8 to final and my code (which hasn't changed overnight) will not work. I've double-checked my include file to ensure that my constants are correct.

Upon running my code, I recieve the following error:
[05:08:28] Waiting for executable to start...
[05:08:28] Executable type ...

I like your suggestion. It would bring a little more consistency to the syntax. +1
