 Still need help with palette for 256 color mode

I'm desperate for help with my palette/colors etc.

I've tried loading every sort of bitmap imaginable for the form.picture, but
my app still runs incredibly slowly in 256 color mode, I get palette
flashes, and some of the controls are horribly dithered.

Please mail me or post any advice you can give.

Thanks,

- guy

Please re-post your original problem. I, too, have had lots of troubles
with palettes/colors so maybe one of the few tricks I have come
across will help.

Are the bitmaps you have tried 256 colours?

I think I've sorted it - I use a lot of graphics (bitmaps) in my program,
and I've found that I didn't take enough care with the palettes when making
them, so I've got two or more different palettes being used in some of the
forms, so whatever I set as the form.picture doesn't work.

I'm reworking it all at the moment.  _Very_ dull.

Thanks for your help.
