# display-trueemu(7ggi)

Emulate truecolor modes

## NAME

display-trueemu - Emulate truecolor modes

## SYNOPSIS

**display-trueemu** **:** \[ **-parent=***mode* \]  \[ **-dither=***dither* \]  \[ **-model=***model* \]  *target-spec*

## DESCRIPTION

Emulates truecolor modes (**GT\_TRUECOLOR**) on another target which can only do palette modes or truecolor modes of different sizes/depths. Uses dithering and special palettes to get the highest possible quality.

## OPTIONS

- **-parent=***mode*

  Force the parent target to use a specific mode, specified as a standard  LibGGI mode string.

- **-dither=***dither*

  Specifies the amount of dithering. Legal values are 0, 2 and 4, defaulting to 4.

  When the target is running, **Ctrl**+**Alt**+**d** changes the dithering level.

- **-model=***model*

  Color model to use (only when the parent is palettized). Legal values are rgb, cube and pastel. Default depends on the parent mode.

  When the target is running, **Ctrl**+**Alt**+**p** changes the current color model.

- *target-spec*

  Specifies the target which to draw on (the \`parent' target). This defaults to automatic selection (just like using **ggiOpen**(**NULL**) when **GGI\_DISPLAY** is not set).

## FEATURES

DirectBuffer never supported.

Unaccelerated.
