Static Gray Palette with NO system colors
This option sets the palette to be a static linear ramp of 256
shades of gray. Therefore, applications are denied the ability to
dynamically change or allocate palette entries. This prevents
palette conflicts between applications, which can cause image
color values to appear distorted in the background application.
As shown in figure 39, each of the 256 entries in the palette has
an RGB value of (i, i, i) where i is the index from 0 to 255.
Figure 39
If you wish to use a static gray palette we recommend using the
“Static Gray Palette including Standard System Colors” option
instead of this one. This is due to the fact that some applications
assume that the first and last 10 entries of the palette are the
standard system colors. In this palette mode, these entries are
made up from entries in the bottom or the top of the gray ramp.
Please note that dithering is not permitted while in this mode.
The Enable Dithering check box will be grayed-out, and dithering
will be automatically disabled regardless of whether this check
box is checked. This complies with the Windows standard
interface method. If you are unsure whether or not your
application requires this “Static Gray Palette with NO System
colors” mode, contact your application provider.
Drawing Modes
In the Drawing Mode section you can choose from the following
Drawing Modes. If any of the options in this section are grayed
out, then they are not available for the model controller with
which you are working.
