itself across the entire display area, both vertically and horizontally

4.11.3.1 Cell Reset
When PGEN_P0_MODE[1] bit is set, the bar counters will be reset to bar 0, and gradients color
counters will be reset to the default color value C0, each time a new grid cell is reached.
This is to be combined with bar offset settings (refer to Section 4.11.2.2: Bar Width, Height and
Offset Control and the example provided hereafter). For example, this will affect all patterns with
non-zero values for PGEN_P0_GRADSTEP_X and/or PGEN_P0_GRADSTEP_Y.
4.11.3.2 Color C0 Replacement
When PGEN_P0_MODE[0] bit is set, the input video signal takes the place of color C0. In that case,
non-zero gradients will apply the increment value to each R G B color of the input signal, not C0.
Note: If the displayed picture has noticiable jitter, the input R G B values are not stable and may generate
heavy noise on screen when the gradient applied to R G B values rolls over from FF to 00.
4.11.4 Borders
The border generator adds a single pixel wide borderline to the panel area. There are 4 edges: top,
bottom, left and right. Each edge can be enabled independently, and programmed to one of 8 basic
colors using a 3-bit RGB mask:
