Ok, so I downloaded a 3ds model and converted it to a .AC file. the color selector in the lower left corner shows colors 1-55, (1 being the black, 2, being the white, ...) where colors 22-48 are various shades of gold. One or more of these 26 variations is used for the parts of the model,

How can I click on surface, and then look up what color it is using?

If I click on a color, and then drag the transparency, I can see the parts change color in the model, but this is a very time consuming way to do this, going through all of the stored color palletes...
