I have come across what seems to be an incompatibility between ResEdit 2.1 and any version of MultiFinder with the "Hide Layers" feature. It affects the BitMap editors in the following way: When the current foreground or background color is changed, the pattern palette does not change color to match. In other words if I choose purple as my new foreground color the pattern palette *should* change so that all the black dots are now purple dots. Under MF 6.0b9, MF 7.0b1 and MF 7.0b4 this does *not* happen. The pattern palette never changes color although it does update and redraw after each foreground or background color change. This bug means that you cannot use the bucket to fill a bitmap region with any color but black. I have noticed this bug for some time now but always assumed it was known about. It affects versions 2.1b3 and 2.1b5 (I know I'm not supposed to have b5 but just think of the free testing I'm providing :-) Although I don't have much experience with the Palette manager, my guess would be that a request to change the current palette is being denied by MF. Have any others experienced this problem? Or are my eyes just going? :) ---- Dan Boerner Master's Student @ Oregon State University boerned@mist.cs.orst.edu "Playing with MacApp and Building Blocks"
