Command Index · BlitzBasic · Display

DisplayModeDepth:Int32 display:Int32, mode:Int32

Parameter	Mode	Type	Default	Description
display	In	Int32	required	The display number, from 1 to CountDisplays.
mode	In	Int32	required	The mode number, from 1 to CountDisplayModes.

Returns: The color depth, always 32, or 0 if the display or mode does not exist.

Description

〔BlitzLLVM〕 This command does not exist in the original Blitz products. BlitzLLVM adds it.

The color depth in bits per pixel of a mode from the list of a display. This is a BlitzLLVM extension: the originals have no way to ask for more than the main display.

Differences

• A display or mode number that does not exist gives 0 instead of stopping the program, unlike GfxModeWidth.
• Palette and 16 bit modes are not supported, so every mode is listed with 32 bits.
