5. You can either type the full path to the
bit mapped file you wish to download or
click on the “Browse” button. The browse
button opens a standard MS-Windows
“Open File” dialog box. You can then
navigate to the desired file and open it.
6. If you selected a valid BMP file, its
dimensions will be indicated in the Image
Dimensions area as shown here.
7. You can choose to offset where the downloaded image will be displayed in the
active video area. By default the image is drawn start in the top left corner. You
can enter horizontal (X) and vertical (Y) offsets of the top left corner of the
downloaded images relative to the top left corner of active video.
NOTE: The bit map download operation does not clear the current displayed test
image. It will only overwrite the portion of active video that matches the size and
offset of the downloaded image. The download operation will modify the color
lookup table values. This may cause the color to change on other portions of the
screen
8. An “OK” message will appear in the status message bar at bottom of the
screen if everything is ready for the download to begin. The “Download” button
will also be available (not grayed).
9. Click the “Download” button and wait for the image to download and display.
Very large bitmap files can take several minutes to load. A message box showing
the current download status will be open during the download. There is no way to
stop the download process without closing the whole VGM application.
