There is no Rez template available for creating item color table resources. When you compile an item color table resource, it should follow the format illustrated in Figure 6-49 . These consist of a variable number of items, corresponding to those in an item list resource with the same resource ID as this item color table resource. Control color tables and text style tables. A control color table defines the colors used in a control.
Several controls can share the same control color table.
A text style table defines the font family, font style, font size, and color of text in an editable text item or a static text item. Several editable text and static text items can share the same text style table. Optionally, a list of font families. If you use any text style tables, you generally conclude the item color table resource with a list of text strings, each of which specifies a font family. Although you may specify font numbers instead of font names, it's much more reliable to specify names, because system software may renumber these fonts as they are installed and removed.
