Could someone tell me if it is possible to set a display to grayscale? From what I've seen I think the answer is no, but I wouldn't mind being wrong! Thanks.

Users can turn the whole screen grayscale in Jaguar by opening the 'System Preferences', clicking on 'Universal Access' then selecting 'Grayscale'.

Whether of not you can turn just a window grayscale or whether there is an API for this so developers can set grayscale is another question......

Excellent, thanks for the tip. I guess I can wait a couple weeks till I get Jaguar then take a look. FYI, I want the whole screen grayscale, not just a window, so this should suffice. Now if only they have an API for it it'll be perfect.
