The text uses the bitmap font I posted here. I was planning to eventually have some sort of 'enhanced text mode' where I don't have a GUI, but a text video mode font inside video mode, allowing some sort of text mode with an image on the background or just have many more colours for text.
The blob-thingy is just our logo (which has an alpha channel) that I'm testing with some highly-unoptimized alpha blending code

My GUI being prototyped. The mouse cursors are circle since arrows imply an orientation. Tablet and surface PCs don't necessarily have an 'up'.

Hi,
I've almost finished a "display module", used by my boot code to display the boot log using the video card.
It handles Unicode (there's font data for all code points from 0x000000 to 0x0000FF), and works for 8-bpp, 15-bpp, 16-bpp, 24-bpp and 32-bpp at any resolution that's 320 * 200 or larger. I still need to add support for 4-bpp.
It's completely resolution independent. It calculates what size font it wants based on how big the monitor is and the monitor's aspect ratio (and scales the 64 * 64 font data to suit); so that regardless of which video mode you use it looks the same (higher resolution means more detail rather than more characters); and so that characters don't look too short/fat on wide screen monitors, or too tall/skinny on 4:3 monitors, or too small on small monitors, or too large on large monitors.
Here's a screen shot from Bochs, for 1024 * 768 @ 32-bpp on a virtual 33 cm by 25 cm (standard 4:3 "15 inch") monitor:
Cheers,
Brendan

Are 0x00-0x1F valud Unicode code points? Never new that...Brendan wrote:It handles Unicode (there's font data for all code points from 0x000000 to 0x0000FF),
That's pretty cool, although you still may want some options for visually impaired (or the opposit) people.It's completely resolution independent.
Anti-aliased and all. Impressive.Here's a screen shot

Really, really impressive. Is there some code to see?
P.S. And what is the font?
