Lorigraph and Master Paint image load/save?

[Dbug]

That's probably a stupid question, but I wanted to test Lorigraph and Master Paint by trying to load the same image and try to use the flood fill routine on it.

Except I've no idea how these tools are even supposed to do that, Lorigraph ask you to enter a filename when saving, but the load just shows a brief error message, and there's no directory to access files anyway.

So how would you take an image, say "an HIRES memory capture from A000 to A000+8000 bytes, and get that loaded in these tools?

Have you tried looking at the manuals on Oric.org?
Lorigraph's one is there.

Master Paint manual is on my disk drive but curiously not on Oric.org. Anyway it says (French version) Q to load a file and E to save. The manual states they can be used outside Master Paint by CLOADing it in Hires mode.

EDIT: my bad, there is a PDF scanned by Dom in Master Paint stuff section (PDFs don't generate any icon so I didn't see it).

I would use Oricutron
Convert flood_fill_test.png to RAW:

Code: Select all

pictconv -o2 flood_fill_test.png flood_fill_test.bin

and copy the the RAW image (8000 bytes) to Oricutron's main folder.
Run Oricutron with Lorigraph (DSK or TAP).
Press ESC to switch from menu to image and move the cursor to bottom-right.
Press F2 and type in debugger:

Code: Select all

fr $a000 flood_fill_test.bin

Exit debbuger and image appears, press ESC for menu screen, select fill mode, ESC - back to image.
Move the cursor to fill start-point and press space!


PS: About joystick in Lorigraph - after lot searching I didn't found any code related to all known types of joystick inside the binary.

Haaaa, I did not know of this fr command, it was not in the documentation I had, when was that added?

Here was the update info.
I'm trying always to keep my changes in synch with the ReadMe.txt file.

I recommend to copy the binary file to Oricutron's main folder just because I'm not sure how it will work if you put the filename with path and it contains spaces.
