- Here's the scoop: I'm loading a 256 colour DIB, and I don't get the right
- colours displayed in my app (but Paint displays them correctly). Can I create
- a logical palette using the bmiColors[] array in the BITMAPINFO structure in
- the DIB file?
- Any example code would be much appreciated.
- When I move to a DIB that has > 256 colours, must I deal with this seperately?
- It appears that the bmiColors array is no longer used, and that the RGB values
- are in the bitmap array (three bytes per pixel).
