Question Question about permitted colours in columns
Thanks to Krittika's wonderful tutorials (Thank you!) I've created a Genre column, which has 12 values.

When I fill in the line that assigns colours to go with the genre values, it doesn't recognize them. Is there a list of permitted colours Calibre will recognize? I couldn't find one in the manual or by searching this forum.

I don't know if it's relevant, but I am using Calibre on a 13" macbook pro with the most recent os.

Thanks

In Look and Feel when you add a rule for column colouring there is a box with a default of aliceblue and if you click on the arrows at the right side of the box you'll get a dropdown of all the colours.

Synamon and Chaley. Thank you both - I'm in colour heaven! You've sent to the selection box, and a site that let's us see what they'll look like
