If you switch you color setting from 65000 color (16 bit) to 24 bit

color it will probably be OK. I have only seen this problem when in 16

bit mode.


There are definate color matching problems in 16 bit mode due to

different algorithms used in determining the 16 bit color palette. In

the 16 bit color mode the color is calculated unlike the 256 color

system it is always close but not always exact.


The browser safe color palette only helps in the 256 color (8 bit) mode,

where colors outside of the color safe palette can be substantually

different than the specified color. Only 24 bit mode with the full 16

million colors has no color problems.

Laura's solution of eliminating the now invisible object in the next

frame is a good idea if possible.
