How can I draw on both Screens with citro2d

[Rüdiger]

I want to draw on both screens with citro2d but when I do the bottom screen is very buggy and picture gets duplicated and only the half get drawn.
The top screen works fine

Sorry for my bad english

Can you post your code? Without it I can't diagnose or give you advice.

Never mind I found the problem: consoleInit(GFX_BOTTOM, NULL);
but idk why this was the problem

This was the code

Code: Select all

#include <citro2d.h>
#include <3ds.h>


int main(int argc, char* argv[]) {
	gfxInitDefault();
	C3D_Init(C3D_DEFAULT_CMDBUF_SIZE);
	C2D_Init(C2D_DEFAULT_MAX_OBJECTS);
	C2D_Prepare();
	consoleInit(GFX_BOTTOM, NULL);

	C3D_RenderTarget* bot = C2D_CreateScreenTarget(GFX_BOTTOM, GFX_LEFT);


	u32 clear_color = C2D_Color32f(0.0f, 0.0f, 0.0f, 1.0f);

	while (aptMainLoop()) {
		gspWaitForVBlank();
		hidScanInput();

		u32 kDown = hidKeysDown();
		if (kDown & KEY_SELECT)
			break;

		C3D_FrameBegin(C3D_FRAME_SYNCDRAW);

		C2D_TargetClear(bot, clear_color);
		C2D_SceneBegin(bot);

		C2D_DrawRectSolid(0, 0, 0, 40, 40, C2D_Color32f(1, 1, 1, 1));


		C2D_Flush();
		C3D_FrameEnd(0);
	}
	C2D_Fini();
	C3D_Fini();

	gfxExit();
	return 0;
}

You were both creating a rendertarget on the bottom screen *and* a console. Put the console on the other screen so that they don't conflict.
When using citro3d/citro2d, you must not use gspWaitForVBlank, as these libs automatically handle screen synchronization.

[Rüdiger]

Is it possible to uninitialize the console, use it for citro2d and back on

[fincs]

Nope, sorry. The console is really only meant to be used in quick prototype programs that are not interested in setting up proper rendering.
