DDraw Blt - ColorFill - System Memory
This automated test verifies that a graphics adapter can successfully perform color fill blt operations on system memory surfaces.
The test performs a series of color fill operations directly onto an offscreen system memory surface. It chooses fill regions so that a variety of sizes and memory alignments are tested. The results of the color fills are compared against a reference image that is generated by using graphics device interface (GDI).
Display drivers must support hardware-accelerated color fills. Drivers indicate this support by setting the DDCAPS_BLTCOLORFILL flag.
This topic applies to the following test jobs:
DDraw Blt - ColorFill - System Memory
DDraw Blt - ColorFill - System Memory (WoW64)

Display adapter driver with DDraw capabilities
Troubleshooting
For troubleshooting information, see Troubleshooting Device.Graphics Testing.
Turn off the screen saver and disable the power management before you run this test. Mode changes and full-screen applications can cause failures, so you should avoid them.
More information
Most of the Microsoft DirectDraw tests (including the DDraw AGP Memory test) are located in Fnddraw.exe. You can run Fnddraw.exe outside of the Display Compatibility Test (DCT) shell, and select initial tests. On the Tests menu, click Select Tests.
The test titles that are listed in the DCT shell do not directly match the test names in Fnddraw.exe. In fact, the names in the DCT often refer to a group of Fnddraw tests. You can obtain the Fnddraw test case names from the DCT log file.
You can pause many Fnddraw tests (especially blt-related tests) to give you time to visually analyze the blt results. Use the Pause key to pause and resume.
Use the Esc key to stop a test run. Be patient because some tests are more responsive than others.
Command syntax
| Command option | Description |
|---|---|
Fnddraw dd_scf.pro -l"fnswtt.dll" -r -c -p"m%MONITOR% " /WTTLogDevStr:$logfile |
Runs both the DDraw Blt - ColorFill - System Memory test job and the DDraw Blt - ColorFill - System Memory (WoW64) test job. Replace the %MONITOR% parameter with a 1-based index that corresponds to the display that you are testing. |
