I had a question about the color palette limitations on a
Sun. When a 256 color picture (say a GIF) is viewed on the 
screen and the cursor is placed on it, the rest of the screen,
with all its windows, seems to undergo a shift in palette.
Then when the cursor is moved to on any other window the picture
becomes dark and invisible. Please correct me if it is something
else. (8=)

The question is : Is there a way of finding out what colors
should be used for the Suntools Windows so that if the picture
in question is displayed on the screen then the color shift 
does not occur and the picture is visible too without the 
cursor on it.

Please direct any personal correspondence towards the following
address

Thanks a lot
