271.0. "Questions on HAM images" by SPHINX::DAVIS () Sat Jan 24 1987 19:38


   I've been reading about the HAM images on an Amiga with great 
interest. From the bits & pieces of info I've picked up I understand
that a HAM image is a method of changes the color registors on the fly
while an image is being scanned on the screen. What I don't quite 
understand is when the registors are changed. Does a HAM image change
the color registors during horizontal retrace giving you a new set of
16 colors per scan line? Or do you somehow sync changing the color
registors during the horizontal trace. If so, how is the syncing 
done?
