The Colors window opens:
When the mouse pointer is moved over a valid location in the Composition Editor, the pointer will change to a spray paint can, indicating it is loaded with a color. The name of the color selected is displayed in the Color Name drop-down list near the bottom of the Colors window.
Note: | You cannot change the color of Menu parts, or parts in Menu parts. You cannot change the color of connections using this window. To change the connection color, use the Connections tab of the Preferences window. |
The backgroundColor attribute specifies the color of the part's background and the foregroundColor attribute specifies the color of text and borders.
You may also change a part's foreground or background color by
bringing up the properties window for that part and editing the
foregroundColor or backgroundColor property
values.
![]() | If Sticky is selected in the Composition Editor, the color selection remains loaded for your convenience. To set a part foreground or background color back to its default, select the Default push button in the Colors window then select the part you wish to change. |
To unload the mouse pointer at any time, select the selection tool
from the tool bar.
