Below these
colors are
three
sliders
labeled R, G,
and
B.
These
letters
stand for
red,
green, and
blue, the
colors
that the
Amiga combines
to
create
the
colors
it displays.
To modify the
color you've selected, you change
the
amount of
red
,
green, and
blue
in
the
color
by dragging the
arrows along the sliders
.
Try
dragging
the arrows
in the
sliders and watch
how the
color
changes.
With
a
bit
of practice, you'll
be
able
to
get
the
colors you want.
To get
back
the colors you
had before you
opened
Preferences,
select
the
gadget
labeled Reset
Colors. (To get
back the
original
Workbench
colors-the ones
displayed when you inserted
the
original
Workbench
disk
that came with
the
Amiga-select the
Reset All
gadget
described below
.)
Interlace
To
change the display to
interlace
mode
,
change
this setting
(which is in
the
upper
right comer of
the
screen)
to On
and
then
save
the
setting
by
selecting the
Save
gadget. Then
reset the Amiga to activate the new display.
This doubles
the
number
of
horizontal
lines
that
make
up the
Workbench
screen.
On many monitors, the colors
in
an
interlaced screen may
appear
to flicker.
You
can often
minimize this
effect by changing
the screen
colors.
Experiment
to
find
the colors
that
work
best
on your
monitor.
Alternatively,
"
high-persistence"
monitors are
now
available which greatly
reduce
the
flicker.
These
monitors can
be valuable
in
applications
that require interlace
screens. Consult your Amiga
dealer
for
more details
.
