    Resolved [RESOLVED] What happened to BackColor ,,, aka Highlight

    Brad

    I recall being able to select some text and specify a BackColor, say, Yellow.
    I believe the tags were [Highlight] along with some color spec.

    Currently, we can specify ForeColor
    But not the BackColor ,, or am I missing something?

    It is the HL tag. You can also do HL={color}.

    .HL. text ./hl. == text
    .HL=yellow. text ./hl. == text

    (replace . with [ or ] )

    Ha !!
    I was obviously missing something
    The VE button

    But, I seem to recall that in the previous version, there was also
    an color pallet box, which doesn't appear now ,, or am I missing
    something else?

    I did this manually

    This is a custom coded BBCode tag, so it is what it is. There is no color pallet. sorry.
