- Short: V1.01a private screen palette editor *BUG FIX*
- Author: tone_20@my-Deja.com
- Uploader: tone_20@my-Deja.com
- Version: V1.01a
- Type: util/cdity
- Requires: WB 3.0, AGA
- Replaces: util/cdity/PowerPalette.lha
-
- PowerPalette is a palette editor that can jump onto private screens and edit their colours. It can edit up to 256
- colours in RGB/HSB modes, and save their palettes to disk as either WB Palette Preferences files or as a custom
- NPal file, which is much smaller.
-
- It runs a simple GadTools GUI; none of that MUI or BGUI nonsense in here (I might do a MUI version in the future,
- but not until I can find a decent palette object). It's quite a small program, and it works as a commodity which
- pops up on the frontmost screen when the hotkey (control-lshift-p) is pressed.
-
- Best of all, the program is IDon'tCareWhatYouDoWithItWare!! I've included the source code for you to play around
- with. If you like the program, you don't have to pay or E-Mail me for the next versions; each new version will be
- put on the Aminet for everyone to use, including the source code. I trust you won't mess around with the program
- and distribute it; you wouldn't do that, would you?
-
- New features since V1.0 include:
-
- * Adjustable hotkey
- * Font-sensitive GUI
- * Tooltype handling
- * Adjustable ASL requesters
- * New force CloseScreen option
- * Now responds to Ctrl-C / Break
- * Code clean up
-
- Bugs fixed since V1.01:
-
- 2* The tooltype CX_POPUP wasn't working properly; if PowerPalette was run from WB, it automatically popped up.
- Although this was my original intention, I can see that it doesn't fit in with general Amiga style, and could
- cause problems if the program was dumped in WBStartup. CX_POPUP now works OK. (reported by Ronne Tennebekk)
-
- 3* A bug was introduced in V1.01, which appeared when you tried to save 256+ colour screens. The save would never
- end, either for WBPrefs or NPal files. Fixed. (reported by Ronne Tennebekk)
-
- 4* A whole multitude of bugs in PowerPalette, only evident when used on 256+ colour screens, were discovered. This
- was due entirely to loop variables of size UBYTE; this should've been OK, but I forgot that for() loops need to
- take the loop counter to 1 over the maximum specified size. This caused many hang-ups. All of these are now
- fixed (I hope :-).
-
- 5* The window title should show "<hotkey = blah blah>", but sometimes showed "<hotkey = blah blah<". Fixed.
-
- This is a major bug fixed version that works with 256+ colour screens. Please replace V1.01 with it as soon as
- possible.
