Super Data Operations Manual

Add to Custom Colors will apply a new color to the Custom Color box selected on the left. Note: if a box is not
selected on the left, the first Custom Color will be overwritten. This will not affect properties originally using the
replaced color, as colors do not operate on indexes anymore.

Caveats with the Color Dialog

Only 16 custom colors will be available for any single screen. The user may manually fill in more unique values or re-
select Custom Colors using the dialog, but the 48 basic and 16 Custom are as many as the dialog can control at once.

Also, the Color Dialog is a Custom implementation of the Common Dialog and presently cannot be made to stay on
top. This is a bug. If the dialog falls to the background, the user must retrieve the original dialog – it is important
not to open another Color Dialog.

List Builder

The List Builder form is the tool the user employs to maintain list items for a Screen Object. It is a traditional list
form:

On the left hand side
is a list of items
applied to this list.
The right hand list
shows all available
items of this list
type.

Add appends the
item selected on the
right hand side to
the list on the left.

Ins inserts the item
selected on the right
into the position
marked on the left.
