Multi-screen synthesizing display apparatus and method
Abstract:
A multi-screen synthesizing apparatus and method have been disclosed by the present invention. Display data of windows required to be displayed on the display terminal are mapped onto at least one logical screen by storing data in a video memory. Each of the windows is correlated with a set of window registers, and the location coordinates of the window and the identification of the corresponding logical screen are stored into the window register set when displaying the windows, the window register set having the highest priority level are found out, based on the location coordinates of the current scanning pixel, as the selected window register. The display data corresponding to the current pixel are read out from the logical screen corresponding to the selected window register and output to the display terminal. According to the present invention, the display data are not necessary to be written repeatedly during the switching operations of windows, thus the overhead for the CPU to process the display task can be reduced without increasing the occupied bandwidth. Thereby the display efficiency of various electronic devices having display ability can be improved and the display cost can be reduced.
