A circuit for generating pixel values for an overlay for a bitmapped output display including apparatus for testing the color value of a background pixel, apparatus for setting the color value of the pixel of the overlay to a minimum value for the particular color if the color value of a background pixel is greater than a preselected value, and apparatus for setting the color value of the pixel of the overlay to a maximum value for the particular color if the color value of a background pixel is less than the preselected value.

Apparatus for generating a cursor or other overlay which contrasts with

An arrangement for storing information to be displayed in a plurality of different pixel formats on a bitmapped output display including apparatus for selecting first positions for storage of information in a first pixel format, apparatus for selecting second positions for storage of information in a second pixel format, apparatus for selecting information from first positions of storage for display in the first pixel format, and apparatus for selecting information from second positions of storage for display in the second pixel format.
