Hi Sebastian and Bruce

thanks for the Sunday afternoon assists. Unfortunately, not a VNC problem (am running it directly in X11, Xquartz 2.3.5), and yup, did check the color prefs in X11 - even commanding millions of colors didn't work.

Sounds like maybe it's not a very common problem though, so more likely I've done something weird to my X11 setup.

cheers,
Fred

Start X11.app (from /Applications/Utilities) go to the X11 menu, select Preferences..., switch to the tab called output and see what is selected for Colors. If it is set to 256 Colors you have your root cause, just switch to something higher and all should be fine.

>> This is a pretty minor issue (except for figure making) - but has anyone experienced and then fixed a display problem in tksurfer/tkmedit in OSX 10.6 (possibly also 10.5) where graphics seem to be drawn only with 256 colors, thereby giving images a kind of contour-plot look?
