Changing the AutoCAD driver default colors for
Paradise VGA AutoCAD drivers - ver 1.11 and above
__________________________________________
The program SETCOLR.EXE allows the user to change the 16 default
AutoCAD colors. The program will display the default 16 colors and
permit the user to selectively change each color by altering their
RGB values. When the user is done defining the desired colors, the
ENTER key will cause the program to save the RGB values for the
driver by writing the values to a file called RGB.TXT.
SETCOLR.EXE must be run in the same directory that AutoCAD was
installed in. This is the directory where the driver will look for
the file RGB.TXT when AutoCAD is started. If the driver cannot find
the RGB.TXT file, it will use the default AutoCAD colors.
Format for the file: RGB.TXT
----------------------------
RBG.TXT is a text file with 16 lines. Each line has 5 characters on it:
3 digits separated by 2 spaces.
The digits represent color intensities and can be values of: 0,1,2 or 3
for the 4 colors mode or 16 colors mode.
the first digit is the intensity of Red
the second digit is the intensity for Green
the third digit is the intensity for Blue.
Each line represents a color index. The first line represents index 0.
The 16th line represents index 15.
Each line (including line 16) ends with a carriage return.
R G B─┘
In the 4 Colors mode, only the first 4 are defined. Any index above 3 must
be one of the first 4 colors.
The file should be on the directory where you execute Autocad. If the file
is not there, the driver will use the default values. Those values are:
4 colors default 8 colors default
0 0 0 0 0 0
3 0 0 3 0 1
0 0 3 3 3 0
3 3 3 1 3 1
3 0 0 0 3 3
0 0 3 1 1 2
3 0 0 3 0 3
3 3 3 3 3 3
3 0 0 1 1 1
3 0 0 3 0 0
3 0 0 2 1 0
0 0 3 0 2 0
3 0 0 1 2 2
0 0 3 0 0 3
3 0 0 2 0 2
3 3 3 2 2 2
You may also use the program: SETCOLR.EXE to set the colors and make RGB.TXT
However, for the 4 colors driver you may not have over 4 distinct colors set.
If you do, the driver will reject the RGB.TXT file, and use the default set.
