Colors in a report

edited June 2004 in General
Hi,

silly question perhaps, however it never stopped me before, but I have a
TShape which I use to make a heading block, and then it has labels etc to
show the headings, but the colors are limited, obviously this is the case in
Delphi, is there a way to add more colours to that drop down.

In dotNet a form appears with a rake of colors and different tabs for graded
colours etc, you can also enter a hex number directly, is there a component
that allows this?

Thanks
Colin

    Hi Colin,

    In the designer toolbar, there is a "Fill Color" button in the Draw Toolbar.
    By clicking on this button, a color pallet will drop down with a small color
    pallet. Then click the "More Fill Colors" button at the bottom to show an
    even larger pallet. You will then need to click the "Define Custom Colors"
    button to gain access to the custom colors pallet.
