Locking a color (Create Bitmap Copy)

(Up to 256 color formats)

You can specify the number of colors you want in the palette of bitmaps. You may want to ensure that certain colors always appear in the palette; you can Lock these colors.

To lock a color

1. The Create Bitmap Copy dialog box displays the bitmap palette. (Color Depths up to 256-color only.) Click on a color to select it.

2. Select the Lock button. A small square appears in the bottom left of the color to tell you it is a locked color.
