| ==== Defining a color ==== | ==== Defining a palette color ==== |
| {{ :options:color-schemes-edit-color.png?200|}} | Normally all color schemes contain the same set of named palette colors - in that way switching between schemes done without any issues, while all referencing from syntax definition colors may be found. If some palette color will be not found, the editor will substitute with a default color for that style (in most cases - window text color). Following actions with colors are possible: |
| | * **Add...** calls dialog for adding a new color. **Take care how it will work in other schemes!** |
| | * **Edit...** calls dialog for editing palette color. See [[:options:color-scheme#edit_color|below]]. |
| | * **Delete** deletes palette color. **Take care how it will work in other schemes!** |
| |
| | === Edit color === |
| | {{ :options:color-schemes-edit-color.png?150|Color Edit dialog}} The //Color Edit// dialog used when modifiying the color, adding new color or creating/updating of //<Custom>// color in [[options:syntax:font_and_colors|Fonts & Colors]] dialog for syntax. |
| | * **Name** - name of the color. Obligatory parameter |
| | * **User-defined**. If you select //user-defined// option, you may select any of known, //named colors//, create new //named color// or define //Custom// color, without giving it explicit name (you can not reuse it than). |
| | * **System**. If you select //System//, you may use one of operating system colors. In that way, if you change Windows Theme, all referencing colors will also reflect the change. |
| | For any option above, you may also modify **Alpha** setting. Alpha percentage controls transparency of the color and influence resulting color which will be produced at the end of [[faq:syntax-highlighting-style-priorities|style stapling]]. As higher the //alpha// percentage, as less the color will reflect in resulting color. |
