VioSetState

This call performs one of the following functions; set palette registers, sets the overscan (border) colour, set the blink/background intensity switch, set color registers, set the underline location, or set the target VioSetMode display configuration.

 VioSetState (RequestBlock, VioHandle)

• RequestBlock (PVOID) - input : Address of the video state structures consisting of six different structures depending on the request type:
  • 0 - Set palette registers
  • 1 - Set overscan (border) color
  • 2 - Set blink/background intensity switch
  • 3 - Set color registers
  • 4 - Reserved
  • 5 - Set underline location
  • 6 - Set target VioSetMode display configuration
  • 7 - Reserved

The six structures, depending on request type, are:

• VioHandle (HVIO) - input : Reserved word of 0s.

;rc (USHORT) - return:Return code descriptions are: *0 NO_ERROR *355 ERROR_VIO_MODE *421 ERROR_VIO_INVALID_PARMS *436 ERROR_VIO_INVALID_HANDLE *438 ERROR_VIO_INVALID_LENGTH *465 ERROR_VIO_DETACHED *494 ERROR_VIO_EXTENDED_SG

Request type = 6, Set Target VioSetMode Display Configuration, and request type = 5, Set Underline Location, are not supported in the family API.

Some options operate differently in the DOS mode than in the OS/2 mode. Therefore, the following considerations applies to VioSetMode when coding for the DOS mode:

• VioSetMode clears the screen.
