I'll give that a whirl, thanks very much!!!! However I would say this is
"wrong" on the face of it, since it's counterintuitive.

If this color 43 is really trans light blue, it ought to be named that in
common usage, including within all the tools. A thing ought to be
consistently named.

Using "trans light blue"  by name (41) renders correctly in MLCad, IMHO. The
color I see on the screen is the color I expect. I confess I have not yet
actually tried to find a trans dark blue since I hardly ever use it in
models... at least not yet. If I ever do some police vehicles I could see
using it though.

Hi Larry, I just tried using 43 for 41 and it comes out looking way too green. I found the solution though. Check out my next post in lugnet.cad.ray!
