Color Selector Setup

The Color Selector Setup area manages the colors available within the Color Selector. Use this setup area to inactive color records so that they will not show within the Color Selector. Use this setup area to create custom color records so that they can be option(s) within the Color Selector.

To show all the Color Selector Setup records (custom colors and standard colors), click the Mass Record Selection Options menu and choose Show All Items.
