Colordialog returning bogus rgb values.

[z0r]

Hello

Im having an issue with colordialog. I want to click a color and have the rgb values returned. I expect each should return a value of 0-255. However it only ever returns 0 32 64 128 or 255. any ideas?



Private Sub btnColor1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnColor1.Click

If ColorDialog1.ShowDialog = Windows.Forms.DialogResult.OK Then

txtCol1.BackColor = ColorDialog1.Color
txtCol1.Text = txtCol1.BackColor.B
End If
End Sub 'button1_Click

Try selecting a custom color...
and not from the "list", and see the range now
