ABSTRACT:
A method, apparatus, and computer instructions for storing colors in a color table used in displaying graphics in a data processing system. A request for a color map is received, wherein the request includes a number of entries for the color map. A color map location and size in the color table is set based on the number of entries in the request. Colors for the color map are loaded into the color table at the color map location, wherein dynamic sizing of color tables occurs.
