The Display Window menu
This menu controls the size and visibility of the display window, and provides an option to print the contents of the display window.
- Visible: Determines whether the display window is shown or hidden. This is useful for viewing output when editing, as the window will hide behind the editor if emulation is not running.
- 100% / 200%: Specifies the size of the display window.
- Force 1:1 Aspect: Maintains correct aspect ration (width to height) and thus prevents distortion of the image as you resize the window. This for example, keeps a circle onscreen looking circular rather than elliptical when sizing. (this is the same option as Maintain Aspect Ratio on the Display tab).
The Edit menu provides Cut, Copy, Paste and Delete commands. These are similar to the commands on the Edit menu in the editor, but they apply to the display window instead - in this context, these operations work on any INPUT command being executed.
Note: In the display window, text can only be selected with the keyboard - not with the mouse. Using the mouse is planned for a future release of BASin.
The Print option
The current display can be sent as-is to the Print Preview Window for sending to your PC printer. The display will be sent exactly as it appears in the display window including any scaling effects.
