Re: Modify screen pixels

by Paul Geisler <paul.geisler@[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Jun 27, 2008 at 02:16 AM

OpenGL doesn't do this, as there is a pixel owner****p test that clearly
divide pixels in ones belonging to opengl and other ones that do not.

Also most systems doesn't encourage modifcation of non-application
pxiels. Nevertheless, it seems possible with Windows as far as i know.
But i think you won't find a readymade cross platform solution for "such
ugly behaveiour" :-)

At most i can imagine a pixel read capability, for example Java
frameworks allow to take a screenshot, thus reading non-owned pixels.
