Status:	Unanswered	TWiki version:	5.0.0	Perl version:	5.10.0

Hello, I cannot change the color menu in the TWikiDrawPlugin! I've set the EXTRA_COLORS in the TWikiPreferences as in the description. The same is valid also for EDIT_BUTTON and other Option .

Can any one help me

Thanks Michael

Discussion and Answer

If you define the setting in the plugin topic you need to use name EXTRA_COLORS, if in TWikiPreferences or WebPreferences use name TWIKIDRAWPLUGIN_EXTRA_COLORS.

Hi Peter, I have set the option in the TWikipreference

TWikiDrawPlugin settings

• Set TWIKIDRAWPLUGIN_EXTRA_COLORS = Aquamarine=#70DB93,New Tan=#EBC79E,Sea Green=#238E68,Motorola Blue=#3ff
• Set TWIKIDRAWPLUGIN_EDIT_BUTTON = 1

The vaiables are indicated correctly!

Not sure why it would not work. I just set these colors on twiki.org's Main.TWikiPreferences. You can verify in Sandbox.WebHome's drawing that the colors show up in the menu. Not sure if relevant, I specified Motorola Blue=#33ffff (e.g. 6 digit color) and removed the trailing blank line.

Hi Peter,

in your Sanboxweb the color menue has the same problem! The Extra Colors in your TWiki.Preference does not displayed in the Menue See screenshot :

*Set TWIKIDRAWPLUGIN_EXTRA_COLORS = Aquamarine=#70DB93,New Tan=#EBC79E,Sea Green=#238E68,Motorola Blue=#33ffff
