Change Screen Properties
Screen properties are changed by using the 'Set Screen Properties' command ID. The property
can be either text, a color, or a value. Colours can be specified using indices from the colour table
or using RGB values.

Note that multiple properties can be sent in a single SysEx message by repeating everything from
the column index to the data. This has the added benefit that all of the updates will take place
simultaneously.
