Error Text Page Element Dialog Box

All of the color properties below use a common set of controls similar to the following:

When the Use Theme is configured, which is the default, Halogen uses the current page theme color.

When Custom is configured, Halogen uses the color shown in the color chooser. To select a new custom color, click on the color chooser drop-down arrow and scroll the list to find the color that you desire to use, then click on it.

The number beside the color in the color chooser is a unique reference number for that color to help you set the custom color to a specific color, perhaps matching a custom color that you've selected for a page element.

The color reset button resets the custom color to the current theme color and changes the selection to Use Theme.

All of the layout properties below use a common set of controls similar to the following:

As you change the page element's position or size, the layout properties change to reflect the current settings.

You can also change position or size by entering new values directly into the Layout property text boxes.

note: Some page elements do not support resizing in both dimensions. In this case, the layout properties area shows all of the settings (X, Y, W, and H), but disables those you cannot change. For example, the HAL system sets a Selector control's height according to the number of selections in the active link. Because of this, the control page designer disables the H text box for the control.

The reset button resets Height and Width to the defaults for the page element's selected Size.
