- Two things.
-
- According to the Borland 6 graphics package and the rules for my monitor, one can
- set the sixteen colors in the palette to be different things with the
- SetRGBPalette command. Is there any way one can print sixteen colors, change one
- of the values, and print a 17th color on the screen without having the pixel
- originally in the color that was changed change to the new color?
-
- Also, how exactly do you get certain colors using Red, Green, and Blue values
- (i.e. purple, pink salmon, Celtic green, etc.)
