When you are in the Colors module, there are 2 choices of Color Scheme by default that you can look at and set. This section gives you a quick glance at what things will look like as you change colors. It also shows if you are changing the “System” colors (named Custom) or the miEHR colors (miEHR colors are defaulted to be MIE’s branded colors of green, orange, etc).

Each logged in user has their own My Settings preference to determine which color scheme they want to see WebChart in. However any changes done to any color scheme in WebChart will affect all users that have that selected. The My Settings preference is called Color Scheme.

The next section is all the settings that colors can be changed and shows the color they are set to currently. The radio button is what you would click to select that specific item you want to change color for. The next step would be to either select a color on the right side with your mouse to apply to that selected field or if you know a specific Hex Value code that you want for it, you can type that in the field. Whatever radio button of the item selected is what will be applied to this color.
