VGA object & Graphics object

Hugh

Searches for various combinations of keywords, on this forum and in the Obex has drawn a blank so I am blatantly asking for a quick and easy solution... ;-)

I've been trying to find an example (e.g., demo or other) where the Graphics object is used with the VGA object. TV and Graphics - yes; VGA and graphics - no. My attempts to crash the two together have not worked and have turned into something of a rat's nest.

Any suggestions / pointers would be appreciated.

Hugh,
Here are a few threads to check out:

The trouble with looking for VGA related info on the forums is that the forums don't allow three letter searches. Just use a site restricted Google search to get past this limitation. I found these threads quickly by using:
"vga graphics demo site:forums.parallax.com" in the Google search bar.

I had trouble with this when I was first starting out with the Propeller. Here is what I ended up with:

my first attempts at this

fake TV object - drop in VGA replacement for TV object

I attached the two files found at those links as well as the template I use now (graphics_template.spin) in a zip file.

Thank you both.

(Thanks for the searching tip, Andrew. That explains quite a few past experiences!)
