I have successfully created and saved 256 color bitmaps in Contructor.
(And verified via the size of the rsrc.)
But when I try to use these bitmaps in a Form Bitmap, they only show up
with 2 colors! (And I've verified that I've successfully switched to
256 color mode before hand.)
Some members of the usegroup said that for color to work, it has to be
in a bitmap family. But as far as I can tell, a bitmap "family" is a
virtual entity -> it's just bitmaps with pointers to each other in the
next bitmap field. And I see no way to create a special "Form Bitmap
Family."
Any thoughts as to how to get the 256 color image to appear in the
Form? One other point - the bitmap has its own palette - could that be
causing the Palm trouble?
Thanks folks!
- Jeff
