You can load new color definitions into the color database using
read-color-db
and
load-color-database
.
Given a color definition file
my-colors.db
of lines like these:
#(:RGB 1.0s0 0.980391s0 0.980391s0) snow
#(:RGB 0.972548s0 0.972548s0 1.0s0) GhostWhite
(load-color-database (read-color-db "my-colors.db"))
To clear the color database use the form:
(setf *color-database* (make-color-db))
Note:
You should do this before starting the LispWorks IDE (that is, before
env:start-environment
is called) or before your application's GUI starts. Be sure to load new color definitions for all the colors used in the GUI. The initial colors were obtained from the
config\colors.db
file.
You can remove a color database entry with
delete-color-translation
.
