FW: Xcsetcolour

[Barry Baker <bbaker@xxxxxxx>]

Dear Ferreters,

 

I guess I pulled the trigger a little too quickly.  I found the problem with the XcSetColour and turned out to be operator error.  I had only set the color depth to 256.  Once I changed to "thousands" the problem went away.

 

Sorry to bother you.

Cheers,

Barry

Hello,

 

Has anyone gotten the following message, XcSetColour: Couldn't allocate X color: RGB = 6679 41992 17656?  If so, how did you resolve it?  I did create the soft link in the X11 defaults.  FYI, I am running Ferret 5.53 in Linux (tsch shell) under VMWARE.

 

Thanks in advance,

Barry
