Tip 09:   Customizing Colors

You can set your own custom color options for viewing the lottery game information.

You can choose colors to emphasize the lottery information, as well as to make it more enjoyable for viewing.  It takes only a couple of mouse clicks.

In your Lottery Director Lotto program (Pick-2 through Pick-9), you can define your colors for the game text displayed on your screens, and for the screen background.

In your Daily program (Pick-3 and Pick-4), you can also define the colors of the "pointers" that point to your numbers and indexes, as well as the text and background colors.

Here's how to do it.

Select Your Color Options Menu

First, go to your Color Options menu.

• At your MAIN screen, select VIEW.
• On your Viewing Options menu, select "Color Options".
• You'll see a new menu with 12 "Standard" Color Options, and a "Define Custom Colors" option.
