ClickForColors and using 16 colors possible?

[sim085]

Hi,

At the moment I am using the icons of small bench which make use of the ClickForColors tool. This requires the system to use 8 colors. If I use 16 colors then everything turns pink and blue. So I was wondering is there a way how I can use 16 colorsm ClickForColors and don't get all the icons in pink?

Here (which is the smallbench guide) says that all icons are 8 colors:

Thanks Cammy for your help and detailed explanation. It seems Aminet is down at the moment so I will have to wait and download FullPalette22 tomorrow or when it comes up again. Thanks again

EDIT: checked again it's now up

Just out of curiosity ... do you people put the "ClickMeFor16Colours"/"ClickMeForColours" in the WBStartup directory? Or just click it once and then save configurations from Prefs/Palette?

I am unsure because what I do most of the time to see if I am installing things correctly is to check with the ClassicWB installation and in this I did not find the ClickMeFor16Colours, or ClickMeForColours in the WBStartup directory!

Also, if I have the new FullPallete, then I should detele the old Pallette?

Hi Cammy,

Sorry for taking long to reply. First of all thank you very much for your help. I wouldn't have managed without! However I do not know if you know this, but colors are set differently by ClickMeFor16Colours then they are in Classic Workbench. For example, black in Classic Workbench is set as 0, 0, 0 while with ClickMeFor16Colours this is set as 1, 1, 1.

I copied the color values from Classic Workbench and now small bench icons are shown in their full splendor. Just with ClickMeFor16Colours values they still look good, just not that good! I do not know if you knew about this or maybe I did something wrong.
