SYMPTOMS

DIB colors may not display correctly when either the SetDIBitsToDevice or StretchDIBits function is used with the DIB_PAL_COLORS flag. This problem occurs when the AnimatePalette function is used to modify the colors in the palette that is currently selected into the target HDC.

CAUSE

AnimatePalette does not replace palette entries in a logical palette when the system is running in a 16, 24, or 32 bit-per-pixel video mode on computer that is running Windows 95, Windows 98, or Windows Me.

RESOLUTION

To work around this problem, re-create the palette by using the CreatePalette function with the desired palette entries. Then, select and realize the palette into the target HDC.

Community Feedback System

Very often, it takes hours to solve a problem. Very often, you've looked high and low, and have tried a lot of solutions. When you finally found it, chances are, it was because someone else helped you. Here's your chance to give back. Use our community feedback tool to let others know what worked for you and what didn't.

Please also understand that the community feedback system is not warranted to be correct, it's simply a system that we've built to let people try and help each other. If something in a feedback response doesn't make sense to you, or you're not comfortable making changes that the feedback talks about (like registry edits), please consult a professional.

Thank you for using kbAlertz.com Feedback System.
