The design table can include a column for configuration-specific colors. The value is a 32-bit integer that specifies RGB (red, green, blue). If no value is specified, zero (black) is used.
If you know the 32-bit integer value of a color, you can type the number directly into the design table in a column with the $COLOR parameter as the header. If you do not know the 32-bit integer value, you can calculate it in the design table with the RGB component values.
To apply a different color to each configuration, display states must be linked to configurations.
Before configuring color:
- Right-click a display state at the bottom of the ConfigurationManager
tab and click Properties.
- In the Display State Properties PropertyManager, under Advanced Options, select Link display states to configurations.
- Click
.
