Color constants for index colors

Some of TextMaker's and PlanMaker's properties expect an index color as their argument. You may exclusively use one of the following values:

smoColorIndexAutomatic       = -1 ' Automatic (see below)

smoColorIndexTransparent     = -1 ' Transparent (see below)

smoColorIndexBlack           =  0 ' Black

smoColorIndexBlue            =  1 ' Blue

smoColorIndexCyan            =  2 ' Cyan

smoColorIndexGreen           =  3 ' Green

smoColorIndexMagenta         =  4 ' Magenta

smoColorIndexRed             =  5 ' Red

smoColorIndexYellow          =  6 ' Yellow

smoColorIndexWhite           =  7 ' White

smoColorIndexDarkBlue        =  8 ' Dark blue

smoColorIndexDarkCyan        =  9 ' Dark cyan

smoColorIndexDarkGreen       = 10 ' Dark green

smoColorIndexDarkMagenta     = 11 ' Dark magenta

smoColorIndexDarkRed         = 12 ' Dark red

smoColorIndexBrown           = 13 ' Brown

smoColorIndexDarkGray        = 14 ' Dark gray

smoColorIndexLightGray       = 15 ' Light gray

Tip: Those properties that use BGR colors are more flexible and should be used preferably.

The colors smoColorIndexAutomatic and smoColorIndexTransparent serve specific purposes, as follows:

▪smoColorIndexAutomatic sets the text color in TextMaker or the color of the sheet grid in PlanMaker to "Automatic".

▪smoColorIndexTransparent sets the background color of text to "Transparent" in TextMaker or PlanMaker.
