512 APPENDIX B: CHANGING 3WXM PREFERENCES
Defining a Color by Changing HSB Properties
You can define colors by changing the hue, saturation, and brightness
(HSB).
■ Hue is the color itself (for example, blue, orange, or purple). Hue is
measured in degrees (0 to 360 degrees).
■ Saturation is the strength of the color. Saturation values are measured
in percentages, with 0 percent indicating no color saturation (gray)
and 100 percent indicating full saturation.
■ Brightness is the amount of light in the color. Brightness is also
measured in percentages, with 0 percent indicating black and 100
percent indicating white.
To define a color by changing HSB:
1 To specify a color by changing HSB, click HSB in the Choose Color dialog
box.
2 To change the hue value, select the H option and do one of the
following.
■ In the H box, specify a value between 0 and 360 degrees.
■ Use the slider to specify the hue value.
The color appears in the Preview box. You can also see the RGB
equivalent in the R, G, and B boxes next to the slider.
