Palette Manager Functions

Initializing and Allocating Palettes

This section describes functions for creating and disposing of palettes. You can create a new palette from a 'pltt' resource using the GetNewPalette function or create a palette from within your application using the NewPalette function. You can also let the Palette Manager and Window Manager together create a palette by creating a 'pltt' resource with the same ID as the window you want to assign it to.

Use the DisposePalette function to dispose of an entire palette.
