Front panel Text color change

[AB@17]

When you want change the color of some text on font panel

the is not linked or not operating to tool palette color function

instead selecting the string and going to menu bar and changing the font color

So it would be better to change the color of label in front panel by tool palette options,

I feel, if this option is there it would be good

I think it's a great idea to skip going into the Font drop-down and then fly-out to change basic font attributes. But I suggest adding some of the well-known buttons for this instead of using the coloring tool from the Tool palette (it'd seem hard to hit letters to color them, it's hard enough to pinpoint control borders and such). Something like this (including the well-known keyboard shortcuts as well of course, e.g. CTRL+B for bold when text is selected):

In my company we change the font attributes all the time due to our coding style guide. We must have bold labels/captions but plain units and default values where applicable: "Initial delay [ms] (0)"

Cheers,

Steen

Steen, there is already an idea for a text toolbar - http://forums.ni.com/t5/LabVIEW-Idea-Exchange/A-text-toolbar/idi-p/953534

It would be better to have a toolbar as SteenSchmidt said
