RE: FLASH: OT: Colour-Dreamweaver to P/Shop

[Bryan Rieger]

John,


I've just started having the same problem with Dreamweaver 3. Even when I pull up the graphic to check the colour it is always registering the correct web safe colour - but it still doesn't completely blend within most browsers. The way I've dealt with this is make that colour transparent if you using gif's - as for jpg's - I haven't had to deal too much with those yet.


-----Original Message-----

I've noticed when using the dropper tool to choose colours (usually from

places other than the little pallette that pops up) the colour it chooses is

not usually correct.  it is often slightly off colour.


I'm wondering if DW and Flash are locking to the Standard Web Swatch

Palette, or maybe the routines are buggy.   I've noticed this problem to be

worse on a mac (the mac I used anyway :)


Maybe I am just imagining it, but I'm pretty sure something isn't right.


Cheers,
