Editing Gradient Colors in Paint Mode DoesnÕt Work Correctly

This information was provided by Claris Corporation on 16 March 1998, and incorporated into Apple Computer's Tech Info Library.
In ClarisDraw 1.0, when working with a paint frame that has a color depth of thousands or millions of colors, if you try to edit the colors in a gradient you will get unpredictable results.

To reproduce:

1. Launch ClarisDraw. You must begin with the 168-color palette as default
2. Draw a paint frame. Change the paint frame setting to "Thousands" in the Resolution and Depth dialog box.
3. Tear off the gradient palette.
4. Double-click a gradient.
5. Edit the colors.

You will see that, as you choose different colors, the gradient doesn't always use the correct ones.

The Claris graphics development team is aware of this issue.
