* Color 9 is a medium blue-green until it is redefined. It can be used in
the same manner as any other color.
Hint: You can quickly change to a color by pressing the appropriate color button
and a number key at the same time. For instance, press BACK COLOR and 3 at the
same time to change the background color to red, which is color 3.
Turning the Border On and Off
Here is an example of a wipe with and without a border:
Use the BORDER COLOR button to cycle through the colors. After color 9,
the border will disappear, indicating that the border is off.
Hint: To quickly turn the border off, press SHIFT and BORDER COLOR at the
same time.
Note: The border is automatically turned off when performing a transition
from a source to the solid color background (that is, when A, B, C, or D is
CURRENT and COLOR is NEXT). The border can be used when going from
COLOR to a source.
Defining a Color
Color number 9 can be changed to a color of your choice. The user-defined
color is applied to the background color and the border color. It is also used in
Compose mode (Chapter 16).
Set the BACK COLOR to 9. The sample at the upper right of the PREVIEW
screen will show you the user color as you change it. Press CUT→COLOR to
see the user color fill the output screen.
