Hi Rick: I just tried a simple test that seemed to work as expected. I created a full spectrum (rainbow) gradient in Photoshop, imported into LC, put a bunch of color values into a field, executed the following:
put fld 1 into theList put specialFolderPath("desktop") & "/export.gif" into theFilePath export image 1 to file theFilePath as gif with palette theList The field contains a return delimited list of RGB colors: 255,0,0 255,0,107 227,0,242 95,0,255 7,3,255 0,62,255 0,147,255 0,238,248 0,255,187 0,255,116 7,255,2 96,255,0 225,247,0 255,155,0 255,61,0 Opening the exported image in Photoshop shows a 16 color palette (black was added I supposed because I only defined 15 colors).
