Re: FLASH: Not WebSafe colour in Flash on Windows ???

[Cheri Harder]

Hi, Mats.  I just did some experimentation with this (Windows 98 here) with

my "eyedropper" from http://eyedropper.inetia.com/ and have these results:


The HTML page with #999999 as a background reports in the eyedropper at

152-152-152 RGB, where the Flash background (or fill) picking 152-152-152

reports as 160-160-160.  Actually, when in the development environment, a

fill of 152-152-152 reports as two-colors...every other pixel is 104-104-104

and 160-160-160.


As for "why" I have no clue.  But there is a recognizable difference on

here.
