- There are five color variables that you can define in WIN.INI. They are:
-
- [Windows Help]
- IFJumpColor=red-value green-value blue value (new panel in another help file)
- IFPopupColor=red-value green-value blue value (popup in another help file)
- JumpColor=red-value green-value blue value (new panel in same file)
- (000 000 000 gets black on white)
- MacroColor=red-value green-value blue value (color of text which runs hlp macro)
- PopupColor=red-value green-value blue value (popup in same help file)
- (000 000 000 gets black on white)
-
- values are ratios of color values from 000 to 255 with 000= minimum intensity
- and 255 = max intensity. Hope this helps.
