ABSTRACT:
The invention provides a system and method for mixing graphics and text in an on-screen display application. The system includes font and character memories. The font memory stores bitmaps associated with characters to be displayed on a display device. The character memory, in turn, includes a font portion and an attribute portion. The font portion stores a font index of characters to be displayed, the font index being used to address the font memory. The attribute portion stores a plurality of attributes associated with a character to be displayed. The plurality of attributes includes a text/graphic attribute indicative of a text character or a graphic clip and a redirection attribute indicating mapping of a main color memory using an expanded color memory.
