When HMCS is SOI and HDC is out of the display area, SPI is created at the edge of the screen

Not sure if this is a DCS bug or a real life bug, but if the HDC is off the HMCS display, and TMS Up Long is used to set SPI, the SPI is created not at the HDC location but at the point on the edge of the HMCS display towards the HDC.

Providing a short trackfile of the described behaviour helps the developers to identify if it is a bug or not.

The same goes if you move the HDC while HMCS is SOI and HDC is outside of the display area.

 

What happens then is the HDC moves to the edge of the display area, wherever it is facing.

In this track:

  • I look to the right and set a SPI
  • I look away and back a couple times to confirm the HDC is remaining on the SPI
  • I look away and press TMS Up Long a few times.  Since the HDC is on the previous SPI, this should not change anything, but each time it moves the SPI and HDC to the edge of the display
  • I press TMS Down Long to reset the SPI to STPT, and the HDC remains in place as it should.  When I press TMS Up Long again while the HDC is in the display, it correctly sets it to SPI again.  If the HDC is out of the display, it sets a point at the edge of the display as SPI (and moves the HDC there)
