#3D EDITOR OBJECT COLOR
7 messages in this thread
In the 3D Editor I can't change object color. The color selection box
apperars all white. I looked in the 3DS.SET file and found nothing. Does
anyone have any sugestions?
Rusty,
Run the 3DS VIBCFG setup utility and select a video mode for your 3D Editor
screen with more colors or a different resolution. You may have to play around
with this to get an acceptable screen.

Bob,
Your suggestion was correct. My display driver was set to a 16 color, I
changed it to 256. Now every thing works fine. Thanks for your quick reply.
I should have done this earlier. I've been working with one color for the past
six months since I upgraded to release 3. Thanks again!
Hi Rusty,

Do you possibly have your 3DS Editor color depth set to more than 256? You can
verify this by "3ds vibcfg".

Jonas,
I had the depth set to 16 color as opposed to 256. After changeing to 256
every thing works fine. Thanks for your responce.

Jonas,
Does this mean that when I am in true-color mode ( >256 ) that I can't
see the swatch change color? Here we go again, several of my favorite
IPAS routines require true-color.

I believe so.
