Since I am doing imaging I do use 4 bit. So do most other imaging
programs that run on something other than the IIIc.
Really? Most serious imaging apps I know of take 8bpp (palette
of 256 colors) as their LOW end. 4bpp is a palette of
-bit ? Because no device has a 4-bit display ?
2) What Palm device has a 2-bit display ?

: 4 Bit Grey? or 4 bit colour? Zire 21/Tungsten T3
Hi All,
Quick question one of you may be able to help me with...
I've just been trying to differentiate between a screen that support 16
shades of grey(Zire21) as opposed to something that supports 16 colours.
(T3
in this case). I've been
winScreenModeGetDefaults to get the colour enabled value.
Unfortunately using this function both emulators indicate that they support
colour.
Does anyone know if this is a fault with the zire21 emulator?, a fault with
my method?
or is any machine that supports 2 bit screendepths classed as 'colour' for
OS compatibility

You can use applications such as Chrome to change the UI colors. This can be
useful for debugging. Also note that the Mac simulator also uses debug
colors, just like the debug ROMs.
