Is there anywhere I can find a list of all specific colors that are used?

If this is what people are using for black rubber, I can update L3DView • to
make it so that this color is less shiny (or perhaps not shiny at all).

I think it makes sense to use a special code for rubber, and 256 sounds
like a good choice.

Also, should the colors between 256 and 511 be displayed with a black • edge
color?  Does it really matter one way or another?  I am currently using
color 8 (dark grey) as the edge color for these colors.

Let's see.  In LDraw, if dithered color K is constructed out of solid
colors I and J as 256 + I * 16 + J, I believe the edge-color of K will be
the edge-color of J.  This makes sense -- LDraw has a 16-entry array of
edge-colors, and to get an edge-color for any color value, just mask off
everything but the low bits -- EdgeColor(ColorValue bit-and 15).

I like L3Lab's option to show all edges as black.  And LDLite's COLOR
command allows you to specify any defined color as the edge-color (for the
color being defined).

(...) If you want the generally-accepted LDraw codes for various LEGO colors, look at (URL). If you want to see all the colors LDraw can generate, see the MPD color chart at (URL). Steve (24 years ago, 17-Jul-00, to lugnet.cad.dev)
