ThinBASIC Modules > Console > Console Color equates

Equates used by Console_SetTextAttribute to build console colors:

Symbol	Synbol alias	Meaning
%Console_FOREGROUND_BLUE	%Con_FG_BLUE
%Console_FOREGROUND_GREEN	%Con_FG_GREEN
%Console_FOREGROUND_RED	%Con_FG_RED
%Console_FOREGROUND_INTENSITY	%Con_FG_INTENSITY %Con_FG_INT

%Console_BACKGROUND_BLUE	%Con_BG_BLUE
%Console_BACKGROUND_GREEN	%Con_BG_GREEN
%Console_BACKGROUND_RED	%Con_BG_RED
%Console_BACKGROUND_INTENSITY	%Con_BG_INTENSITY %Con_BG_INT

To compose a color just OR (use Or keywork or | symbol) one or more equates.

For example, to have a Bright Cyan Foreground color over Blue Background color, do something like the following:

Long cBrightCyanBGBlue = %Con_FG_BLUE | %Con_FG_GREEN | %Con_FG_INT | %Con_BG_BLUE

To have a Bright Red Foreground color over Black Background color, do something like the following:

Long cBrightRed = %Con_FG_RED | %Con_FG_INT
