[1.0.30] Palette display

Is there a way, that I can turn off the palette which is displayed in the top left corner?

That's the debug palette display. Somewhere you must set the 'vid_showpalette' CVAR to 1. This one is not saved in the config so check your batch files etc.

Thank you for the quick reply.
I am running GZDoom by either double-clicking on the exe file or the desktop icon, not by bat files.
While setting vid_showpalette to 0 gets rid of the palette display, it is back the next time I run GZDoom.

then check your gzdoom ini, autoexec.cfg and desktop shortcut properties

Some permanent config file must set it then. It's unlikely to be the .ini. More likely is autoexec.cfg or similar files that may hang around.

That's what it was.
When copy/pasting stuff to the ini file a path to an old autoexec.cfg, which did set vid_showpalette to 1, snuck in. I should have notice it myself before posting.
I gave myself a good talking to.

Thanks again for the help.
