Title: Hotspots 7 and 8 bright red instead of original color
Post by: R4L on Fri 25/08/2006 18:46:37
When I draw out hotspots 7 and 8 they don't show up as their original colors, instead, they are bright red colors. It doesnt bother me, but I just wanted to know if it was a possible bug or something. Has anyone noticed this?

Yes in fact, thats because you selected the 32bit true color. Thats no a bug.

Anyway I think everybody would be pleased if you didnt fill this forum with curiosities. Just with problems. ;)

Since when is that not a bug?
The hotspots aren't all the right colour. I've noticed that too, and it's annoying.

I think, it was made for convenience, because all the other hotspots are rendered grey when inactive and in their color when active. And then we have hotspots 7 & 8 that should normally be grey in both cases.
And you couldn't distinguish them from the others, I think.

Im using 16 bit by the way. :)

That could be it, never thought about it that way.

Hmm, yes, good point.
The hotspots have gotten a bit messy since the number increased above 15.
Perhaps 30 distinct non-gray colours should be used.
