#Draw Colors
5 messages in this thread
Neither FileZap nor Disasm seemed to be able to handle a file as big as
Draw correctly, so I zapped Draw over to an 8-banger CP/M system and took a
look at it with EdFile. The ColorMap image is located at 135908(10),
212E4(16). A little twidling, and now Draw comes up with colors to match
the pens, & in the order I want. If you need to make a similar alteration,
here is what the default color table looks like:
0329 0FFF 0000 0FF0
000F 0F0F 00FF 0006
0620 0E50 0851 0EB0
044F 092F 00F7 0CCC
If you do change the default values, you should keep the first three
(desktop, menubar, window) and the last (grey for differently colored
grid).
Jeeze! You've been a busy boy, haven't you? Thanks for the further info.

Well, fixing the color table was on my "to do" list, anyway. There are
some other defaults that I would like to change permanently, such as
size/placement of the initial window, ruler status, grid pattern, and initial
pen. Unfortunately, these won't be as easy to find as a 32 byte table w/ known
entries. The easy way would be to capture binary images of Draw before and
after the changes were made, and run the files through a binary comparator —
except that I don't know of a utility that will do a binary image capture for
the Amiga, since it isn't just "start at 0100 and save n pages."
