The "name" value changes to "#0024FF", Your display is in 16-bit mode. It uses only 16 bits for each pixel (typically five bits for red, six for green, and five for blue, if I recall correctly). A colour value like #0026FF uses eight bits for each of red, green and blue. Thus the least significant bits of each channel get truncated when it is actually displayed. --tml _______________________________________________ gtk-list mailing list gtk-list@xxxxxxxxx http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-list
