Color sub-menu

A color clicked from this menu is used to set the text color of the current text selection.

The Color sub-menu of the Style menu contains the following items and lists all predefined colors except white:

• normal (shortcut: [Cmd]+[Opt]+0)
• [space]
• black
• warm gray (shortcut: [Cmd]+[Opt]+4)
• warm gray dark
• cool gray
• cool gray dark
• [space]
• blue (shortcut: [Cmd]+[Opt]+3)
• cyan
• green (shortcut: [Cmd]+[Opt]+2)
• magenta
• red (shortcut: [Cmd]+[Opt]+1)
• orange
• poppy
• yellow
• [space]
• bright blue
• bright green
• bright red

The 'normal' color is a special designator color that allows the text/attribute to inherit a color based on existing preference/attribute settings. In most cases it defaults to black.

Note that custom colours are not listed - text can only be set to built-in colors.

This menu is configured via the colors.xml file.

This is a different menu from the similarly-named sub-menu to the Note menu; the latter is used to set the $Color of selected note(s).
