-Keep in mind that palettes are not saved until the user chooses to do so. If you made any mistake, you can just hit "cancel" and try again. If you hit Ok, the palette will be changed locally, but will reset if you restart the application.

-Saved palettes are stored on the disk in the user palette folder ''Dinamica EGO/Dmps'', so every time you reopen the map viewer, you will still have them. Changes made by the user in predefined palettes only affect his own instance of the application. To reset the predefined palettes to their default state, remove the user palette folder and restart the application.
