Expert tip: Custom colors

  • It is possible to customize your color palette. To do this, make sure you have already started Halocline Layout once after installation.
  • During this process the program should be closed.
  • Navigate in the folder system to the installation path:
  •  C:\ProgramData\Halocline\Layout\Config
  • Open the color-config.json with a text editor.
  • This file contains the colors available in VR in RAL color format:
  • {"colors":[1006,1023,1026,2003,2004,2005,3026,3003,3005,4004,8004,8016,8001,4005,4008,4010,3017,5002,5005,5017,5012,5015,5023,6019,6018,6038,6034,6024,6029,6026,9003,7035,7040,7024,9017]}
  • You can now replace unused RAL colors with a new one by replacing the 4-digit number with another one. 

Notice:

  • Pay attention to the format when editing this file. The colors should consist of 4 numbers and be separated with a comma. 
  • Halocline Layout can display up to 35 colors.
