I downloaded the ldconfig.ldr file and replaced mine in case it was outdated.
There are two colors in the file that look like what I need:
0 !COLOUR Stone_Gray CODE 71 VALUE #A3A2A4 EDGE 0
0 !COLOUR Dark_Stone_Gray CODE 72 VALUE #635F61 EDGE 0
However, the color codes 71 and 72 do not work for me in MLCAD. When I open up
the color bar for a piece and type in or look for color 71 and 72, they show up
simply as "unused" colors.
Am I doing or reading something wrong?
Thanks,
David
