38<H2>Description</H2>
39<P>This function will cause the graphics processor (GP) to execute graphics commands from the display list <SPAN class="argument">list</SPAN> instead of from the GP FIFO. When the value of <code><em><strong>nbytes</strong></em></code> (a multiple of 32) has been read, the graphics processor will resume executing commands from the graphics FIFO.</P>
40<P>Graphics commands from a display list are prefetched into a separate 4KB FIFO. This prevents any data prefetched for the main graphics command stream from being lost during the display list call.&nbsp;<BR><B>Note:</B> A display list cannot call another display list.</P>
41<P>The display list must be padded to a length of 32 bytes.&nbsp;All the data in the display list is interpreted by the graphics processor, so any unused memory at the end of a display list should be set to <code>GX_NOP(0x00)</code>. If you create a display list using the <A href="GXBeginDisplayList.html"><CODE>GXBeginDisplayList</CODE></A> / <A href="GXEndDisplayList.html"><CODE>GXEndDisplayList</CODE></A> functions, these functions automatically perform padding.</P>
