OpenEdge default colors
The environment that comes with your OpenEdge installation specifies 16 colors. The following table shows these colors and the integers you use to reference them in an application. Note that for backward compatibility, the 16 colors are the same as those available in Version 6 of Progress.
Caution: The OpenEdge Application Development Environment (ADE) reserves these 16 colors (0 through 15) defined in your environment. If you change the mappings of these colors, the ADE tools might not function properly. You can add your own application colors beginning with number 16.
