Colours in Office 2000
I have been trying to fine tune, a particular colour (orange) for a logo.
Using the rgb colour selector I find that the colour changes in steps, e.g. for about a 10 step increment in one of the colours. Smaller increments don't have any effect. Is this a limitation in Word 2000, and is 2003 better? BTW, I have my screen set up on 32-bit (highest) setting. Bill |

Hi Bill,
All 65 million color combinations are supported but the change may be too slight for you to see it on screen (96 pixels per inch) or the brightness contrast or gamma settings for your monitor may affect this or the color management settings for your printer. If you're copying it from another onscreen source you can download and use an 'eyedropper' style utility or color mixer or color wheel utility to 'pick' and 'paste' a color match. ======== "Bill B" wrote in message ...

Hi Bob
Thanks fo your comments, though I still think there is something wrong, as the shade changes quite suddenly after say 10 increments, while the smaller increments all seem to produce an identical hue.

Hi Bill,
A 10 click change in a single value in R G or B is just under a 4% change of that hue, so I'd expect that to be fairly noticable. Have you tried using a color picker tool or website to determine the color mix you need? ====== "Bill B" wrote in message ...
