💖 morph3d(6x) 💖

okay bestie, so this is a page from the XScreenSaver manual, and we're talking about morph3d — yes, that's the lil executable name, she's serving looks in the 6x section 💅

---

✨ NAME ✨

morph3d — 3d morphing objects. that's it. that's the whole vibe. shapes that morph. in 3D. slay. 🦋

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

morph3d [--display host:display.screen] [--visual visual] [--window]
[--root] [--window-id number] [--count number] [--delay number] [--fps]

---

🎀 DESCRIPTION 🎀

okay so it's another 3d shape-changing GL hack, no cap. she has the same shiny-plastic feel as Superquadrics — as many computer-generated objects do... 😭 like honestly bestie, the plastic sheen is the moment, we love a glossy queen. ✨

👑 OPTIONS 👑

• --visual visual — specify which visual to use. legal values are the name of a visual class, OR the id number (decimal or hex) of a specific visual. you got options, literally. 🌈
• --window — draw on a newly-created window. this is the default, bestie, so if you don't say anything, this is what you get. 🫶
• --root — draw on the root window. main character energy, desktop takeover. 👑
• --window-id number — draw on the specified window. you pick the window, she moves in. 🎀
• --count number — 0 - 20. default: 0. (yes really, that's the whole range, respect the limits 🙈)
• --delay number — per-frame delay, in microseconds. default: 40000 (that's 0.04 seconds, iykyk). tiny pauses, big drama. ⏳
• --fps — display the current frame rate, CPU load, and polygon count. nerd stats on screen, and honestly? obsessed. 📊🔥

---

🌈 ENVIRONMENT 🌈

• DISPLAY — to get the default host and display number. she needs to know where to show up, fr fr.
• XENVIRONMENT — to get the name of a resource file that overrides the global resources stored in the RESOURCE_MANAGER property. yes that's a mouthful, no I will not shorten it. 💀
• XSCREENSAVER_WINDOW — the window ID to use with --root.
