I have a flash project the requires users to have their system color depth set to 32 bit. The site uses transparent .png files that don’t appear correctly at 24 bit and lower (the transparency seems to be only 50% transparent). The easiest solution I see is to run a test upon site load that checks for their color depth. Can flash do this? My research shows that Flash can test for screen resolution using system.capapbilities.screenResolution. This is so close to testing the color depth. I just have to think it’s possible.
Ideally the code would check the color depth then pop-up a message telling users who are under 32-bit to change up to 32.
What do you think?
