Hi! Is there a way to compute to a given color a darker one on a VGA card (256 color modes preferred)? E.g., given "white" as input, the algorithm should output "gray" and so on. Up to now, I'm using an ad-hoc lookup-table, but this approach relies on the standard palette... *ANY* ideas welcome, TNXIA, Kai -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Kai Rohrbacher | "(West-)Berlin war ein sur- Internet : S_ROHRBACHER@IRAV1.IRA.UKA.DE | realistischer Kaefig: die Bitnet : UKB8@DKAUNI2.BITNET | drinnen sassen, waren frei!"

This will maintain the colour and adjust the brightness. -- -----------------------------------------+---------------------------------- |/ (ins845b@monu4.cc.monash.edu.au) | This space for rent. |\evin (ins845b@monu3.cc.monash.edu.au) | All reasonable offers accepted -----------------------------------------+---------------------------------
