How to open a P96 screen?

[tonyw]

I know it's probably a silly question, but I'm trying to update an old prog to use P96. How do I open a screen using a Picaso96 mode? I've tried various modes in struct NewScreen, but I can only get PAL hi/lo res, interlaced or not.

What do I have to do to use the other screen modes?

Thanks, Thomas, that's a great help. Although I haven't got it working yet, I think I understand what's needed--
1) I set the Type flag NS_EXTENDED (only)
2) I make up an array of Tags "Ext_tags[2]"
3) the first one is TAG_USER, SA_LikeWorkbench
4) the second one is TAG_END, 0
5) I put &Ext_tags[0] into the Extended field in ExtNewScreen

I call OpenScreen((struct NewScreen *)ns_ext), having to cast the ExtNewScreen struct to a NewScreen struct.

As I said, I've got that far and it still opens a lo-res screen, not a Workbench clone, but I'll persist for a while yet.

Thanks, Georg and Thomas, it works a treat now.
