How is the contrast color defined for line type 1, when color=24?

It will be the constrast color for the constrast color.  Which may be the same
as the main color -- but it may not.

Does that mean that it would be appropriate for a renderer to just swap
the main and contrast colors when it encounters such a line, or what?  I
just want know what a renderer is supposed to do.

Also, some viewers (like L3Lab) may balk at rendering a file which uses color 24
in a line type 1.

Well, doing grep '^1 24 ' on the parts files shows that some parts do
exactly that, which is why I was asking.

(...) Not exactly -- just use the current contrast color as the main color for the subfile. Whenever a subfile is rendered, it should already be looking up the local contrast color based on the local main color. Steve (18 years ago, 5-Sep-06, to lugnet.cad.dev)

(...) Actually, that grep doesn't return anything. '^[ \t]*1 24' does return hits from three files, though. Every single place in the library that this is used, it's used in a reference to one of the edge primitives. The edge primitives use color 24 (...) (18 years ago, 5-Sep-06, to lugnet.cad.dev)
