DESCRIPTION
The Style type collects the font and colour information for an applica‐
tion or a set of items within an application. Except when using the
layout routines (see prefab-compound(2) and prefab-element(2)), the
members of a Style are the only way to control the appearance of Prefab
items. Note that although the `...color' members of Style in practice
often refer to a literal colour (a single replicated pixel of colour),
they can be any image.
Styles are allocated by regular Limbo definitions; there is no alloca‐
tion function. All the members of a Style must be defined. Although
it will not cause errors to modify the members of a Style after it has
been created and passed to a Prefab routine, the results may be unpre‐
dictable.
edgecolor This Image specifies how to draw the edges, or borders, of
compounds.
elemcolor This Image specifies how to draw the base, or background, of
elements and compounds.

regular text.

lar text.
