41 If wxDefaultVideoMode is passed in as the mode parameter, the defined
42 behaviour is that wxDisplay will reset the video mode to the default
43 mode used by the display. On Windows, the behavior is normal. However,
44 there are differences on other platforms. On Unix variations using X11
45 extensions it should behave as defined, but some irregularities may
46 occur.
47
48 On wxMac passing in wxDefaultVideoMode as the mode parameter does
49 nothing. This happens because carbon no longer has access to
50 @c DMUseScreenPrefs(), an undocumented function that changed the video
51 mode to the system default by using the system's "scrn" resource.
