Right. I'm trying to implement a transition effect not readily supported in macwindows.h.
I'm referencing CGSPrivate.h that calls undocumented transition calls. The aim is to
implement a window "flip", similar to the Parallels emulator. Here's the code I got.
spec.wid=a[self windowNumber]; is the only Objective C call I need to do from Carbon. Does
this make sense?
CGSTransitionSpec spec;
// assign our transition handle
handle = -1;
// specify our specifications
spec.unknown1=0;
spec.type=CGSCube; // CGSFlip ???
spec.option=CGSLeft;
spec.backColour=NULL;
spec.wid=a[self windowNumber];
// Let’s get a connection
CGSConnection cgs= _CGSDefaultConnection();
