# Applying Color to Formula Parts

Use the command color to apply color to the subsequent formula part.

The example below creates a formula where a is shown using the default color (black) and b is shown in red.

a + color red b

Be aware that the color command only changes the color of the formula part that comes immediately after it. For example, in the formula below only b will be shown in red, whereas c will be shown in black.

a + color red b + c

Use braces to apply color to more parts of the formula. In the following example, b and c are shown in red.

a + color red { b + c }

A list with predefined color names is available here.

## Using RGB colors

Use the command color rgb to apply colors using RGB (Red, Green, Blue) values.

color rgb 192 0 128 var

RGB values range between 0 and 255.

## Using hex notation

Use the command color hex to apply colors using the hexadecimal notation.

color hex C00080 var

## Combining color with other commands

It is possible to combine the color command with other commands as bold, italic or size.

The example below writes var in bold blue:

color blue bold var

To change color and font size, use color in combination with size and the desired font size.

color blue size 20 var
