Translucency colors different in Zquest and ZC

I've noticed that the translucency colors are different in ZC and Zquest.

The first one is in Zquest and the second is in ZC. I think the colors in Zquest look better.

It's even worse for me. All the translucent colors are totally messed up in ZQuest. Hold on, I'll make up a screenshot to show you what I mean:

This is how the screen normally looks:

And when I make layers 1 and 3 translucent:

What's up with this?

Are you pressing the "b" button to rebuild the translucency table?

That fixed it. Thanks!

...is there any way this rebuilding could be automated? There must be certain factors that would cause a rebuilding to be necesary (I imagine that editing the palettes would be one such case). Perhaps there could be an option in the options dialog to make ZQuest automatically do a rebuild at these times.

DN is working on making it automatic. You should read this post, it is where I got that info from. 😉
