cgs on real hardware

[sytzemeijer]

Does cgs also work on real hardware. And if it doesn't work what can I use.

[RaphProductions]

Only VBECanvas is working on real hardware

[RaphProductions]

and VGACanvas

[sytzemeijer]

where can i find its documentation?

[RaphProductions]

it's a normal canvas

[RaphProductions]

so you can use it like FullScreenCanvas.GetFullscreenCanvas()

[sytzemeijer]

@RaphMar2021 that was cgs

[RaphProductions]

yes, VBECanvas & VGACanvas is a part of CGS

[sytzemeijer]

But what's the difference then?

[RaphProductions]

nothing, just the driver behind it changes

[sytzemeijer]

And how should I use them.

[RaphProductions]

like a normal canvas

[sytzemeijer]

[RaphProductions]
