We do this \ by checking the low byte of the result in X against \ 2 * #Y - 1, and returning the C flag from this \ comparison. The constant #Y is the y-coordinate of the \ mid-point of the space view, so 2 * #Y - 1, the \ y-coordinate of the bottom pixel row of the space \ view. So this does the following: \ \ * The C flag is set if coordinate (A X) is below the \ bottom row of the space view, i.e. the top edge of \ the circle is hidden by the dashboard \ \ * The C flag is clear if coordinate (A X) is above \ the bottom row of the space view, i.e. the top \ edge of the circle is on-screen RTS \ Return from the subroutineName: CHKON [Show more] Type: Subroutine Category: Drawing circles Summary: Check whether any part of a circle appears on the extended screenContext: See this subroutine in context in the source code Variations: See code variations for this subroutine in the different versions References: This subroutine is called as follows: * SUN (Part 1 of 4) calls CHKON
Arguments: K The circle's radius K3(1 0) Pixel x-coordinate of the centre of the circle K4(1 0) Pixel y-coordinate of the centre of the circle
Returns: C flag Clear if any part of the circle appears on-screen, set if none of the circle appears on-screen (A X) Minimum y-coordinate of the circle on-screen (i.e. the y-coordinate of the top edge of the circle) P(2 1) Maximum y-coordinate of the circle on-screen (i.e. the y-coordinate of the bottom edge of the circle)
