Workbench > 16 colors
« on: October 04, 2004, 07:14:17 AM »
Hi all, I recently installed a graphics card so that I could achieve higher resoutions and color bit depths.

My Amiga is now connected to the SVGA monitor and I am achieving 1280x1024.

I would like to install NewIcons to give my Amiga a snazzy modern workbench appearance. I am new to Amiga so I don't understand some things. In PREFS:ScreenModes I have select 1280x1024x16 and moved the slider all the way to the right to give me 65,536 colors. But when I go into PREFS:Palettes I can switch between 4 color and "Multicolor". Multicolor appears to be about 16 colors. Is this normal? How can I achieve a 16 bit Workbench?  :-?

So if I install NewIcons or something along those lines they should be displayed in full color?

I was pondering the purchase of 3.5. How well will it work on a 68060/50-based A2000?

I heard 3.5 is 3.1 with some user-added extensions. Can someone confirm? :)
