Order Button Colors Tab

Features in the "Order Button Colors" tab in Neovest's "Theme Wizard" box let you change the button colors that appear in all Neovest Order Entry, OE Montage, and Trade Manager windows.

You may use colors as indicators to personalize and differentiate the buttons used to execute each order type in the aforementioned windows. For example, you may set up your "Sell" buttons to appear purple, your "SShort" buttons orange, and your "SSX" buttons yellow.

Note: For more information regarding Neovest's "Theme Wizard" box, refer to the “Theme Wizard Introduction” in the "Menu" chapter of Neovest’s Help documentation.

The following instructions explain how you may change the default "Buy," "Sell," "SShort," "SSX," "BCover," "Cxl Last," "Cxl Symbol," "Cxl All," "Cxl Order," and "Cxl Side" button colors for all Neovest Order Entry, OE Montage, and Trade Manager windows via the "Order Button Colors" tab of Neovest's Trade Wizard:

Click the "Menu" icon on Neovest's Launch Pad.

Select View | Appearance/Themes from the menu that appears.

Once the "Themes" window appears, select the theme whose "Buy," "Sell," "SShort," "SSX," "BCover," "Cxl Last," "Cxl Symbol," "Cxl All," "Cxl Order," and "Cxl Side" button colors you wish to edit for all Neovest Order Entry, OE Montage, and Trade Manager windows.

Note (1): You may click on each theme and preview its colors in the "Preview Screenshot" section before deciding which to edit.

Note (2): During the process of editing an existing color theme, if you wish to create a new color theme, click New Theme.

Once the "Theme Wizard" box appears, enter the name in the "Theme Name" field in the "General Settings" tab that you wish to give your new color theme.

OR

If you wish to edit an existing color theme without creating a new theme, you must first copy the existing theme by clicking Copy Theme once the theme is highlighted, and click Edit Theme.

Select the “Order Button Colors” tab.

Click on the button (e.g., "Buy," "Sell," "SShort," "Buy Cover," etc.) background or foreground color that you wish to change.

Note (1): The background will alter the actual button color while the foreground will alter the button's text color.

Note (2): Once you click on a color corresponding to "Buy," "Sell," "Sell Short," etc., the "Choose a Color" box will appear. The "Choose a Color" box contains five tabs: "Swatches," "HSV," "HSL," "RGB," and "CMYK." The "Swatches" tab lets you select one of several color "swatches" to replace the existing component color of the selected color scheme. The "HSV," "HSL," "RGB," and "CMYK" tabs let you edit the color of the selected swatch. If at any time you do not like the color of the swatch you selected or you do not like the color changes you have made to the swatch itself, click Reset to return to the existing component color of the selected color scheme. Once you have selected a replacement color, click OK.

Once you change the colors for the buttons you wish, click OK.
