Where does pyglet use 0-255 in colors? I've only used the OpenGL stuff for setting colors so far... To answer your last question, all 24bit RGB displays (8 bits each for R, G, and B) use 0-255. 2^8 = 256, after all. So correspondingly, most of the color system's I've ever encountered have used 0-255 for rgb values. OpenGL's the first notable exception that I've run into. ~ Nathan --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "pyglet-users" group.
