- Greetings, I wish to display a small picture in a dialog box. I have an
- 8-bit grayscale pict. How do I display this if the monitor is set to 1-bit?
- I know that QuickTime can do this, but I can't always be sure that QuickTime
- is installed. Do I need two PICTs in the resource fork and then I have to
- pick the PICT based on bit depth? I guess I need a user-item in my dialog
- box for this? How do I get the screen depth of the screen where my dialog
- is displayed? Is there a better way?
