About Work Canvas and Color Depth
<\/strong><\/h1>\n\n\n\n

Update V4.7b<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The WORK CANVAS<\/strong> is a monochrome<\/strong>, grayscale <\/strong>or color<\/strong> graphic editor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Color Depth<\/strong> of the canvas (number of colors) is selected in the Configuration Settings<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The COLOR PICKER<\/strong> adapts to the color depth<\/strong> setting (blue arrow)<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Example : in 4096 colors mode, the picked color will be the nearest color<\/strong> found in the internal default or custom 4096 colors palette<\/strong>. There are color palettes for 8, 16, 256, 4096, 65535, 262k Colors (green arrow)<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At import of a color graphic<\/strong> into the WORK CANVAS<\/strong>, a conversion to the defined color depth<\/strong> palette of 8, 16, 256, 4096, 65535 or 262k Colors is performed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
