3612.0. "Is SIXEL official ..." by TAV02::CHAIM (Semper ubi Sub ubi .....) Wed Dec 01 1993 13:34

A customer has asked whether the Read functions including the ability to scroll
will work for a SIXEL file.

If the answer is positive, is this officially supported, and if so where is it
documented.

Thanks,

Cb.

3612.1SIXEL is supportedIOSG::NEWLANDRichard Newland, IOSG, REO2-G/L2Wed Dec 01 1993 21:3632
SIXEL (and REGIS) is supported by the LIST function, assuming you are using 
ALL-IN-1 from a terminal which supports these protocols.

The SIXEL or REGIS region is displayed between picture markers, i.e.

	-------------- PICTURE -----------------



The text before and after the picture is not displayed on the screen at the 
same time.  This is because a SIXEL or REGIS graphic often requires a full 
screen to dispay correctly.  Therefore as you scroll through the file the 
following is displayed on the screen:


[1]	Text
	Text
	-------------- PICTURE -----------------


[2]	The SIXEL graphic



[3]	-------------- PICTURE -----------------
	Text

3612.2What about SIXEL as att and DDIF ??TAV02::CHAIMSemper ubi Sub ubi .....Thu Dec 02 1993 09:5310
Now that I know that SIXEL support basically exists, is it possible to attach a
SIXEL file to a document, or is it only supportd within a WPS-PUS document
within a specified control block.

Also, what about a DDIF document. COuld this be attached to a WPS-PLUS
document?

Thanks,

Cb.

Your SIXEL file should be brought into ALL-IN-1 as an ASCII document.

Yes.
