Yes it is a debug rom. It's my understanding the debug rom shows unusual colors, if you've set colors that aren't in the current pallete...as a way of letting you know that you're using out of bounds colors.
Basically i'd just like to know what the proper way to set ui colors is for a given rgb value. Now, if I set the colors before FrmDrawForm the debug row correctly shows my UI, as do the actual devices for the most part. One of them has two colors that are off (completely different colors) however. If I set colors after FrmDrawForm the debug rom shows weird colors as do the devices. I'm assuming this is all due to the lack of my understanding about setting the index in the RGBColorType structure. Any help appreciated, thanks!
