multim(3G)multim(3G)NAMEmultim - organizes the color map as a number of smaller maps
FORTRAN 77 SPECIFICATION
subroutine multimPARAMETERS
none
DESCRIPTIONmultim organizes the color map of the currently active framebuffer as a
number of smaller maps. Because only the normal framebuffer supports
multiple color maps, multim should be called only while drawmode is
NORMAL.
There are getgde(GDNMMA) maps, each of which will have up to 256 entries,
depending on the number of bitplanes available. Call getpla after
setting the drawing mode to the desired framebuffer to determine the
color map size. getgde can also be called at any time to determine the
size of the color map of any framebuffer.
multim does not take effect until gconfi is called. When called, gconfi
executes multim requests pending for all drawing modes, regardless of the
current drawing mode.
A framebuffer's color map is used to display pixels only if the
framebuffer is in color map mode.

NOTES
This routine is available only in immediate mode.
multim is not supported on Iris Entry, Indy, XL, XS, XS24, XZ, Elan, Ex-
treme, and IRIS-4D RealityEngine systems.
