Websafe colors are colors that are common to both Macintosh and Windows platforms. These colors are not dithered when viewed in a Web browser on a computer display set to 256 colors.
Fireworks has several methods of applying and using Websafe colors.
To force all colors to Websafe colors:
Choose the Web 216 palette.
To create an adaptive palette that favors Websafe colors:
Choose the Web Adaptive palette. Non-Websafe colors that are close to Websafe colors are converted to the closest Websafe color.
To force a color to its closest Websafe equivalent:
| 1 | Select a color in the Color Table panel. |
| 2 | Change the color: |
|
Click the Snap to Websafe button.
|
|
Choose Snap to Websafe from the Color Table panel Options pop-up menu. |
|
Changing colors to Websafe in the Color Table panel does not effect the actual image, only the exported version of the image.
