Re: [ferret_users] Backingstore for animation on the fly

[Sudheer Joseph <sjo.india@xxxxxxxxx>]

Dear Domingos,
                            You need to set that in your xorg.conf file as below under Section Device. I am having Ubuntu and in my case it is in  /etc/X11/xorg.conf

Section "Device"
        Identifier      "Configured Video Device"
        Option "BackingStore" "True"

hope this helps

Dear all,

I'm trying to do animation but I got the following error message:

yes? repeat/l=1:252/animate/loop=5 (vec uwnd,vwnd)
!-> REPEAT: L=1
 Using every   6th vector in the X direction
 Using every   7th vector in the Y direction
 **ERROR: feature not implemented: Animations require X-server backingstore

I think I need to configure the backingstore of my ferret. What do I need to do?

Cheers,
Domingos.
