setallpalette
Syntax of setallpalette
Description of setallpalette
setallpalette sets the current palette to the values given in the
palettetype structure pointed to by palette.
You can partially (or completely) change the colors in the EGA/VGA
palette with setallpalette.
The MAXCOLORS constant and the palettetype structure used by
setallpalette are defined in graphics.h as follows:
#define MAXCOLORS 15
struct palettetype {
unsigned char size;
signed char colors[MAXCOLORS + 1];
};
size gives the number of colors in the palette for the current graphics
driver in the current mode.
colors is an array of size bytes containing the actual raw color numbers
for each entry in the palette. If an element of colors is -1, the palette
color for that entry is not changed.
The elements in the colors array used by setallpalette can be represented
by symbolic constants which are defined in graphics.h. See Actual Color
Table given here:

BLUE 1
GREEN2
CYAN 3
RED 4
MAGENTA 5
BROWN6
LIGHTGRAY 7
DARKGRAY 8
LIGHTBLUE 9
LIGHTGREEN 10
LIGHTCYAN 11
LIGHTRED 12
LIGHTMAGENTA 13
YELLOW 14
WHITE15
EGA_BROWN 20
EGA_DARKGRAY 56
EGA_LIGHTBLUE 57
EGA_LIGHTGREEN 58
EGA_LIGHTCYAN 59
EGA_LIGHTRED 60
EGA_LIGHTMAGENTA 61
EGA_YELLOW 62
EGA_WHITE 63
Changes made to the palette are seen immediately onscreen. Each time a
palette color is changed, all occurrences of that color onscreen change
to the new color value.
Note: Valid colors depend on the current graphics driver and current
graphics mode.
setallpalette cannot be used with the IBM-8514 driver.
