Select Edit | Preferences | Edit Window Colors from the menu bar. The Color Editor dialog box opens.
Click the Auto Preview check box. This allows you to preview your changes inside the Edit window as you make them.
Select a specific command or a parent command from the list of commands in the Command Text Colors area. Click on the plus signs to expand the list to view additional sub commands. This allows you to set the principal colors (Marked, Unmarked, Step Mode, and Error) for specific commands or parent commands. To set the changes for all command text, select Default from the top of the list.
Simply click the Edit button for the text or background color in the Command Text Colors area. A Color selection box appears.
Select the new color, or customize a color by selecting the Define Custom Colors button.
Click the OK button. The Color selection box closes. If you selected a parent command, PC-DMIS presents you with an option to set all child commands under the parent command to use the same color as well. At this prompt, select either Yes or No.
When you finish defining your colors, click the Apply button to see the changes without closing the Colors dialog box.
Click the OK button to apply the changes and close the Color Editor dialog box.
