Trying FBlit396..WB screen corrupt.

[HellCoder]

I'll try to reproduce the error again this weekend since I seem to be the only one who actually solved this error. Unless someone else knows what to do ?

Hey everyone, I will try all the suggestions, thanks for the
help. Will have to wait till the weekend, been busy making
a nice home for my new A4000

HellCoder: If you can reproduce the problem and find out
exactly what causes it, let us know. Seems FBlit is a problem
for many people....

Dunno if that'll help any, but I had corruptions when I changed fallocbitmap settings, so just in case that's the reason....

....go to fblitgui>fallocbitmap and make sure that it's like this:

installed > checked
activated > checked
task logging > disabled
task list options > exclude
anonymous tasks > promote
displayable bitmaps > pass on
promotion memory > mem_fast

BTW, are you sure the version is 3.96? Latest on aminet is 3.79a.

be carefull about some versions of fblit and blazewcp, some version (now i dont remember) is infected by a virus.

FWIW, I noticed the same issue on two of my three machines with 060 accelerators:

2000 w/ Blizzard 2060 and Spectrum 28/24
- FBlit, Picasso96, PowerIcons
1200 w/ Blizzard 1260 (AGA only)
- FBlit, BlazeWCP

4000 w/ CyberStorm MKIII and Picasso IV (NOT affected)
- FBlit, P96, PowerIcons

I do not believe I am using anything other than the default configs for FBlit, and have followed the docs on startup placement and WBPrefs settings.  All have 2MB Chip and >= 128MB Fast.  I will have to check on the configurations for each program, as well as the versions.  I hoped this might be helpful in finding a common thread.

FBlit + RTG - a big nono.

Hi,
I haven't been able to reproduce the error.
Perhaps I've installed a different FBlit version ?
I'm using fblit V 3.73, what version are people working with that have the error ?

[marcfrick2112]

Hellcoder, and the other person I just went to website from the docs, it's actually V. 3.69....umm, little transposing error there...oops, I guess I'll have to try the newer version..but FBlit is stable now after changing where I put it in my SS...as per a suggestion here....sorry everyone

[HellCoder]

Were exactly did you put it in your startup-sequence ?

[kickstart]

Yes... good question.

This corruption occurs when on the Workbench Preferences icon, Images in Other Memory is selected in conjunction with FBlit.
Just change the selection to Images in Graphics memory.
Otherwise you ahve two programs trying to do the same thing.
Seems that way anyway and works for me.

I had the same multicoloured stripes on my OS 3.9 WB with drawers opened.
@rockape 's note cleared it up. Thanks.
Post: Also read that OS 3.9 BB4 includes BlazeWCP, FBlit and FText functions so no need for them. But use the Workbench app in Prefs in this case.
