Color buttons

Each color button in the Color window represents one of the colors in a palette:

• The ``Background'' color is used for all windows on the screen, with the exception of the window in which you are working.

• The ``Foreground'' color is used for text.

• The ``Top shadow'' color is used for the outline around all window frames.

• The ``Active window'' and ``Active top shadow'' colors are used to identify the window you are working in. The ``Active foreground'' color is used for text in the active window.

• The ``Alternate background'' color is used for the Desktop background, and for scrollbar and slider bar troughs, and the icon box background, if in use.

• The ``Highlight'' color outlines buttons when you click on them.
