Though I'm not sure how well most renderers handle parts that use color 24. (I
think L3lab gives an error message?)

The list of edge colors is at the bottom of the color page: (URL) L3 reports an error if you use color 24 in a subfile (...) (22 years ago, 14-Aug-02, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts.primitives)
