It returns a value other than 0 when in the V-Blank period; it returns 0 when not in the V-Blank period.</P> 29<H2>Note</H2> 30<P></strong> The hardware V-Blank flag is set to 1 when line 192 starts and to 0 when line 262 starts. Because the function uses this flag value to determine when the hardware is in a V-Blank period, be aware that the V-Blank period is when the V-counter value is the 192-261 range. This does not include 262.</P> 31 32<h2>See Also</h2> 33<P><CODE><A href="GX_VBlankIntr.html">GX_VBlankIntr</A></CODE>, <CODE><A href="GX_IsHBlank.html">GX_IsHBlank</A></CODE></P> 34<H2>Revision History</H2> 35<P> 362005/02/17 Added caution about V-Blank period.<br /> 2004/01/19 Initial version. 37</P> 38<hr><p>CONFIDENTIAL</p></body> 39</html> 40
