exactly.

here's a little snippet that finds out the supported depths and sets the
screen to the highest depth.

UInt32 depth = 0, depthMask = 0;

WinScreenMode(winScreenModeGetSupportedDepths,NULL,NULL, &depthMask,NULL);

while(depthMask){
depth = depth + 1;
depthMask = depthMask >> 1;
}

WinScreenMode(winScreenModeSet,NULL,NULL,&depth,NULL);

hi,

FtrGet(sysFtrCreator,sysFtrNumDisplayDepth,&displayversion);

where displayversion is an user defined unsigned
integer variable.

if(displayversion != 1)
   colored;
else
   monochrome;

I hope this will help you

Thanks,
krish

why not just use WinScreenMode() and request the available
depths? some launchers may put the device in grayscale mode
and the above code wont work.
