A colour palette is a [[data tiddler|DataTiddlers]] that supplies a [[CSS]] colour value, such as ''yellow'' or ''#fe0'', for each of several colour names, like this:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
page-background: #fe0
|
|
table-border: #ccc
|
|
...
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Several palettes form part of the core. The system tiddler [[$:/palette]] always contains the title of the currently selected palette tiddler. You can change a palette using the <<.icon $:/core/images/palette>> ''palette'' button, found on the "Tools" tab in the sidebar.
|
|
|
|
To retrieve the value of a named colour from the current palette, e.g. for use in a stylesheet tiddler, use the <<.mlink colour>> macro:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
<<colour page-background>>
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Palette tiddlers should have the following fields:
|
|
|
|
|!Name |!Value |
|
|
|title |Typically starting with `$:/` |
