The contrast color within the subfile would be defined in the normal way - use
the main color for the subfile, and look up the contrast color from the color
table.

The fact that the originating linetype 1 used color code 24 shouldn't matter by
the time the renderer is determining the contrast color for the subfile.

for example, a simple recursive rendering function might be psuedo-coded as
(leaving out details we don't care about):

function renderLdrawFile(fileName, mainColor) {
   // look up edge color
   var constrastColor = findContrastColor(mainColor)

   for each line in fileName {
      var localColor = line.color
      if localColor == 16 then localColor = mainColor
      if localColor == 24 then localColor = contrastColor
      if line.lineType == 1 {
         renderLdrawFile(line.file, localColor)
      }
   }
}

Okay... that makes sense. But what if the contrast color for the current file's main color is just an RGB value rather than a color index? What should the subfile's contrast color be set to in that case? Thank you for your help, by the way. >> Mark (...) (18 years ago, 5-Sep-06, to lugnet.cad.dev)
