Set Highlight Color

This frame contains six buttons that affect the foreground and background colors used to highlight code in the Coverage File Viewer portion of the main window. The currently selected foreground/background colors are displayed on the buttons themselves to allow the user to see the selections prior to committing to them by clicking the Apply or OK buttons at the bottom of the Preferences window.

Color Dialog Box

To adjust the color, simply move the arrows beneath the red, green, and/or blue color spectrums until the desired combined color (distinguished in the window in the lower right-hand corner of the window) is displayed. The user may also specify the 8-bit color value for red, green, and/or blue in the entry field to the left of each color spectrum. Finally, the user may specify the 6-digit hexidecimal color value in the entry field on the right-hand side of the window. Whenever the color is modified by using any of these controls, all of the other controls are changed to reflect the current color selected.
