Appendix F: Available colours
Strype allows you to specify colours as a hexadecimal string such as "#1098ee". The starting "#" indicates that this is a hexadecimal colour, and then each pair of digits is red, green, blue in that order (abbreviated RGB). So this colour has "10" red, "98" green and "ee" blue. You can learn about hexadecimal by searching online if you are not familiar with it.
You can alternatively use colour names, which can be easier if you are not familiar with RGB and hexadecimal. The table below shows all the available colours in Strype. Each row shows the string name you use for it, its hexadecimal value in case you want to then change to a similar but slightly different colour, and a column which shows what the colour looks like. (Colours may look a little different on screen, if you are reading this on paper.)
Strype ignores upper-case/lower-case for these colour names, so "AliceBlue" and "aliceblue" (or "aliceBlue") will all work as ways to use the "aliceblue" colour.
