====== Customizing OS Appearance ======

===== Appearance Control Panel =====

==== Colors ====

There are two sets of colors available for customization - the ''highlight color'', which is used for selected or highlighted text, and the ''variation color'', which is used for selected menus and form controls. The highlight color may be customized, but the variation color may not.

OS 9 includes **desktop patterns**, which are small images that can be tiled at any screen resolution. Some of these patterns are solid colors, while others are repeating designs. Desktop patterns are also available in OS 8.

==== Themes ====

Themes are built from the different appearance settings. Changing the theme will change all appearance settings, including sounds and functionality (like double-clicking title bars to toggle windowshade). Below are the default OS 9 themes.

^ Name                ^ Pattern                                                                 ^ Wallpaper                                                                         ^ Highlight                    ^ Variation                         ^
