Hello, are there any commonly used formulae for converting : 16bit RGB565(0.31, 0.63, 0.31) values AND 24bit RGB(0.255, 0.255, 0.255) values
to their hexadecimal triplet equivalents that are used in the 8bit indexed mode, (also commonly used for the HTML web pallet). For instance; the 8bit index colour 89 (palm blue original), when converted to RGB using WinGetPixelRGB(), produces a value (0x33, 0x00, 0x99) (note : all other indexed values are also sets of three twin hexadecimal numbers.) in 16bit mode for the same colour, WinGetPixelRGB(), produces a value of (0x36, 0x00, 0x9B) which is probably within the scope of the actual RGB565 value, see following note; (Note: 16bits at 5bits+6bits+5bits = 32*64*32 possible colours, RGB values are in the ranges 0.255, making a total of 255*255*255 possible set of three numbers. This means that for each real colour there are around 255 different possible RGB values.) Many thanks all help appreciated Darren -- For information on using the ACCESS Developer Forums, or to unsubscribe, please see http://www.access-company.com/developers/forums/
