Hi, I have seen, on a painting program, an interesting effect : when the image is in grays colors the program, running on a standard VGA 16 colors enviroment, changes the system palette with 16 levels of grays and then it displays the image. The result is a colorless image but with a very good idea of what it should represent. This trick can be better than dithering with 16 colors. Do you have some idea or suggestions to do the same with MFC ? thanks. Andrea Cavalleri.
