7000 series functional color code

I thing there are two more colors that had a meaning:

  • yellow means warning
  • orange means exclusive function

I tried to change it by myself... hopelfully have done it right...

I've started getting the colour values using picker on the shot from the video. Here's my first test:
#2F2960 Twilight
#5F6F96 Denim
#6D809F Slate blue
#8793AE Blue/grey
#B0B1C0 Cool grey
#130C31 Midnight
I'll play with the method and will get useful values in the coming weeks. Qfissler (talk) 14:30, 22 September 2023 (PDT)
So I was thinking that those hex colour values could be fed into a table to get a good render:
Display mode selection palate
Display mode selection
Display mode selection
Display mode selection
Display mode selection
Display mode selection
Finally got some better RBG values - more to do - I/we need to scour the brochures and catalogues for more
