I see there are default schemes. I see there are multiple colors.but how do I know what colors are used for what. Is there somewhere a report(s) which shows all colors used where they are intended for. Or is there a description which of the 10 colors and 4 background colors are used for what?
Secondly. If I know the above how do I create my own scheme of color and add it to my template. Ok found the User-Defined. And how to change it.

Hi Peter,
Thank you for your question. Unfortunately, this isn’t really documented. The background colors are used, for example, in header areas — and depending on the nesting level, a different color is applied. It works similarly for crosstabs, and the colors are also used in charts.
The easiest way is to just try it out in your existing reports—you’ll quickly see how the colors behave in practice.
To me colors are important. I would like to give my customers the control over their colors so for example they can modify the colors in standard reports by changing to their own company house style.
No I do not allow customer to maintain their own reports.Well not at the moment so
So was looking for something like
LLSetOption hJob LL_OPTION_COLOR_HEADER_1 (RBG_Value)
For me it just makes sense to know what colors are used for what. Right usage of colors can make your reports well in this example of invoices stand out.
The same when using graphs. The graphs I use in the application I give the end using control what to use.
I am sure you used color experts to create you design schemes. I am not, but do think it does change over the years. Cannot look back to olders version. But please consider to open this up with LLSetOption
Peter
