.SH "NAME"
SDL_SetPalette\- Sets the colors in the palette of an 8-bit surface\&.
.SH "SYNOPSIS"
.PP
\fB#include "SDL\&.h"
.sp
\fBint \fBSDL_SetPalette\fP\fR(\fBSDL_Surface *surface, int flags, SDL_Color *colors, int firstcolor, int ncolors\fR);
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.PP
Sets a portion of the palette for the given 8-bit surface\&.
.PP
Palettized (8-bit) screen surfaces with the \fBSDL_HWPALETTE\fP flag have two palettes, a logical palette that is used for mapping blits to/from the surface and a physical palette (that determines how the hardware will map the colors to the display)\&. \fISDL_BlitSurface\fR always uses the logical palette when blitting surfaces (if it has to convert between surface pixel formats)\&. Because of this, it is often useful to modify only one or the other palette to achieve various special color effects (e\&.g\&., screen fading, color flashes, screen dimming)\&.
.PP
This function can modify either the logical or physical palette by specifing \fBSDL_LOGPAL\fP or \fBSDL_PHYSPAL\fPthe in the \fBflags\fR parameter\&.
.PP
When \fBsurface\fR is the surface associated with the current display, the display colormap will be updated with the requested colors\&. If \fBSDL_HWPALETTE\fP was set in \fISDL_SetVideoMode\fR flags, \fBSDL_SetPalette\fP will always return \fB1\fR, and the palette is guaranteed to be set the way you desire, even if the window colormap has to be warped or run under emulation\&.
.PP
The color components of a \fI\fBSDL_Color\fR\fR structure are 8-bits in size, giving you a total of 256^3=16777216 colors\&.
.SH "RETURN VALUE"
.PP
If \fBsurface\fR is not a palettized surface, this function does nothing, returning \fB0\fR\&. If all of the colors were set as passed to \fBSDL_SetPalette\fP, it will return \fB1\fR\&. If not all the color entries were set exactly as given, it will return \fB0\fR, and you should look at the surface palette to determine the actual color palette\&.
.SH "EXAMPLE"
.PP
