====== How to display colour editor ======

Sometimes you need to store a colour, which you can edit using a colour editor. To do this define an attribute of the Plain Text type in an object – this attribute will store a textual value of the colour (need about 10 characters). Change the ''Content'' property of the attribute to specify ''Colour''. When you do this the attribute will be displayed using a Colour Picker widget on forms. If this attribute is used in queries it will be displayed as a box with the background colour stored in the attribute. If you want to display textual values go to the ''Display Format'' property of the query column and select ''Text''.
