Would it be possible to only have X number of the high bits use this approach while the others do not? Or maybe one color can and not another. A bit more complicated, but would possibly be a good middle ground and save a few pins at a moderate extra cost and space usage. -HK _______________________________________________ Open-graphics mailing list [email protected] http://lists.duskglow.com/mailman/listinfo/open-graphics List service provided by Duskglow Consulting, LLC (www.duskglow.com)
