Configuring Display Settings on Windows 2000 | 27
This illustration shows the assignment of values on the
grayscale palettes.
Palette options with multiple displays
The
SelectPalette
and
RealizePalette
functions in the
Microsoft Developer’s Network, or MSDN, work across all
monitors if the primary monitor is palettized. The palettes of all
palettized devices are synchronized. If, however, the primary
monitor is not palettized,
SelectPalette
and
RealizePalette
select the palette into the background, and palettized devices are
not synchronized.
Desktop icons
The palette specifications of the primary display determine
how desktop icons are drawn. For example, the desktop icons
appear gray in a color screen if the primary display is set to
a gray palette.
