<b>Colors</b>
<p>
There are three <i>palettes</i> for black, white and colored background,
respectively. Each palette has 64 color entries, which can be set to any
RGB value. The palette entry number 0 is used as the background color
(in the "white" palette this entry cannot be modified, since this palette
will also be used for printing, where the background is always white).
<p>
The color palettes can be modified either through the dialog under
"Options/Set.../Colors" or by using the command
<pre>
SET PALETTE <i>index</i> <i>rgb</i>
</pre>
where <i>index</i> is a number in the range 0..63 and <i>rgb</i> is a hexadecimal
RGB value, like 0xFFFF00 (which would result in a bright yellow). Note
that the RGB value must begin with "0x", otherwise it would be taken as a
decimal number. You can use
<pre>
SET PALETTE BLACK|WHITE|COLORED
</pre>
to switch to the black, white or colored background palette, respectively.
Note that there will be no automatic window refresh after this command, so
you should do a WINDOW; command after this.
<p>
By default only the palette entries 0..15 are used and they contain the
colors listed below.
<p>
The palette entries are grouped into "normal" and "highlight" colors. There
are always 8 "normal" colors, followed by the corresponding 8 "highlight"
colors. So colors 0..7 are "normal" colors, 8..15 are their "highlight"
values, 16..23 are another 8 "normal" colors with 24..31 being their
"highlight" values and so on. The "highlight" colors are used to visualize
objects, for instance in the SHOW command.
<p>
The background color for layout and schematic can be set to any color.
Note, though, that in case the background color is neither pure black nor
pure white, the drawing will be displayed layer by layer, which usually
makes a window refresh slower than with black or white background.
