Color tables depend on the "New Fashion" option.
You will find the color tables in the tool box under
8x0d\examples_tools\wizard.bsp\hmi_emb\...
The file names indicate the application of each table.
- HMI_EMB_OLD_FASHION.PAL :
This color palette should be used for HMI Embedded with Old Fashion
Color indices 160 to 231 are available
- HMI_EMB_NEW_FASHION.PAL :
This color palette should be used for HMI Embedded with New Fashion
Color indices 160 to 231 are available
- HMI_EMB_OLD_AND_NEW_FASHION.PAL :
This color palette should be used for HMI Embedded with both Old and New
Fashion; the bitmaps generated with this color palette are identical in appearance
for Old and New Fashion.
Color indices 160, 163, 184, 187, 196, 199, 204, 205, 207, 217, 219, 220, 221, 223,
226 and 228 are available
The previous color table HMI_EMB.PAL is superseded by the tables specified
above. Only colors 160 through 231 can be used. This is the only way to ensure
that images look the same on HMI Embedded and HMI Advanced.

System colors
There is a choice of 10 colors available for the color of a form screen element (text,
input field, screen from background, etc.). The system colors have been expanded
- and there is a difference between the old and new designs (refer to, e.g., the
header color in the table below).
In order to achieve a demarcation between unique and design-dependent colors, it
has been defined that the unique colors are found between 0 and 128. The design-
dependent colors that have been newly introduced as part of this expansion, are
defined from index 128. This means, that also when the unique colors are
expanded (up to 128), it is prevented that both color types are mixed.
Newly defined colors
Index Color description Color
Old design New design
128 System color active field Yellow Orange
129 Background color Gray Light gray
130 Header color (active) Yellow Blue
131 Header font color (active) Black White
