[comp.sys.mac.misc] After Dark 2.0 Problems!!!

csmith@lewhoosh.umd.edu (Christopher Smith) (06/28/91)

A co-worker of mine is using After Dark 2.0 on a Mac IIcx with System
6.0.5.  Whenever After Dark invokes a color-based module, things look
great.  People sit back in absolute awe of the simple things us Mac
folks can do as compared to the IBM folks.  But I digress...  When he
then later moves the mouse or hits a key, the screen naturally
reappears, BUT the colors are severely distorted.  The only way to
return the colors to tehir normal state is to go to the Colors CDEV
under the Control Panel and choose "Change Color..." and then
immediately hitting "OK", at which point things return to normal.

I know this copy of After Dark has been replaced a couple of times.
Is this problem a common bug, or are we somehow, subconsciously doing
something wrong?  Is this an incompatibility between something and
something, or is it merely a bug?  If so, is there a patch available
to fix this?

Many, many thanks for the responses.  Please EMAIL responses to
csmith@lewhoosh.umd.edu.  Thanks!
