The StellarMate Plus Manual

The Colors page allows you to set the color scheme, and to define custom color
schemes. The tab is split into two panels:
The left panel shows a list of all display items with adjustable colors. Click on any
item to bring up a color selection window to adjust its color. Below the list is
the Star Color Mode selection box. By default, KStars draws stars with a realistic
color tint according to the spectral type of the star. However, you may also
choose to draw the stars as solid white, black or red circles. If you are using the
realistic star colors, you can set the saturation level of the star colors with
the Star Color Intensity spinbox.
The right panel lists the defined color schemes. There are four predefined
schemes: the Default Colors scheme, Star Chart, which uses black stars on a
white background, Night Vision, which uses only shades of red in order to protect
dark-adapted vision, and Moonless Night, a more realistic, dark theme.
Additionally, you can save the current color settings as a custom scheme by
clicking the Save Current Colors button. It will prompt you for a name for the new
scheme, and then your scheme will appear in the list in all future KStars sessions.
To remove a custom scheme, simply highlight it in the list, and press the Remove
Color Scheme button.
