Graph ics Co mm an d Set
The Default byte has a value of either 0F or 8F. A value of 0F sets all indicated
items to their standard default values. A value of 8F and a mask bit equal to one
requires the appropriate data for a new default to be defined in the data field for
the corresponding attribute. Unreferenced data bytes not addressed by the
mask field are ignored.
The Data bytes contain immediate data that specifies values for the attributes in
this instruction. If the Default byte is 0F, these Data bytes are not present.
The Set byte specifies one of the following attributes or parameters:
