Hi Everyone
Me again… What is the normal cause in c# to slow down the system t snails pace.
Obviously Its my code but the code was derived from a class already written
public craneview(Desktop window)
{
_window = window;
loopTimer = new DispatcherTimer();
loopTimer.Tick += Loop;
loopTimer.Interval = new TimeSpan(0, 0, 0, 0, 62); // 16 FPS
loopTimer.Start();
}
/// <summary>
/// Renders the screen bitmap initially.
/// </summary>
/// <param name="dc"></param>
public override void OnRender(DrawingContext dc)
{
dc.DrawImage(screen, 0, 0);
}
/// <summary>
/// Loop that handles the game's logic.
/// </summary>
/// <param name="sender"></param>
/// <param name="e"></param>
private void Loop(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
if (exiting) return;
if (ATB == 0)
ATB = 1;
else
ATB = 0;
messages = "ATB ON";
if (ATB == 0)
messages = "ATB OFF";
UpdateScreen();
}
/// <summary>
/// Update the screen bitmap.
/// </summary>
private void UpdateScreen()
{
screen.Clear();
screen.Scale9Image(0, 0, this.Width, 32, _task, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0xFF);
screen.DrawImage(0, 32, uniccrane, 0, 0, uniccrane.Width, uniccrane.Height);
screen.DrawText(angle.ToString("F1"), segoeFont, Color.Black, 5, 180);
screen.DrawText(length.ToString("F1"), segoeFont, Color.Black, 200, 180);
screen.DrawText(radius.ToString("F1"), segoeFont, Color.Black, 280, 240);
screen.DrawText(messages, ninaBFont, Color.White, 5, 5);
screen.DrawText(weight.ToString("F2"), segoeFont, Color.White, 360, 250);
screen.DrawText(swl.ToString("F2"), segoeFont, Color.White, 360, 32);
screen.Flush();
}
When the button “select” is pressed or the touch screen is touched the events seem to pile up and run all at once ( the rest of the code is the same as the original demo code )
I Think personally that scaling the taskbar image is the culprit as when this is removed it runs a little better
