To change a color scheme
Click Display > Colors on the navigation bar.
(Optional) Click in the rainbow panel next to the group(s) to show the Color Pick Table from which you can easily select browser-safe colors.
In the field for the group color scheme element that you want to change, specify a new color by doing one of the following:
Enter the hexadecimal value for the color. The hexadecimal value must include the # symbol, for example, #9999CC.
Click in the field, and then click a color in the Color Pick Table. This inserts the hexadecimal value for the selected color.
Repeat the previous step as needed to change other group color scheme elements.
Click Submit.
