Well, there's only one active palette, and it is system-wide, not window-based. You're in complete control of the palette when your app is running. If you want to take over the whole thing and have 256 variations on purple, the system won't get in your way. But in that case, as you've found, the "Find" dialog will be in purple too. Ditto for alarms, etc. If you want to be nice to things like Find, then share: leave some entries in the palette that correspond to the set UI colors. You'll nearly always want to leave black and white in 0 and 255 (or 0 and 15, or whatever). When you change the palette, the system goes through and figures out what entry in the palette is the closest to the desired UI colors, I'm nearly positive. So if you leave some entries that are what the system wants, or close, then all will be well. (I'm on my way out the door for a week's vacation, so I won't be able to follow up on this thread, but I'm sure that others can...) -David Fedor Palm Developer Support -- For information on using the Palm Developer Forums, or to unsubscribe, please see http://www.palm.com/devzone/mailinglists.html
