Set color for protected screen fields (Screen class)

The ProtectedColor property sets or gets the current default for the color of protected fields in a Screen object. A protected field is assigned this color unless another color value is explicitly specified in the AddField statement that defines the field.

An unprotected field's color can also be changed by the Color method.

Syntax

%currentFieldColor = screen:ProtectedColor screen:ProtectedColor = newFieldColor

Syntax terms

currentFieldColor A Fieldcolor enumeration to get the current default color for protected fields. Valid values (case unimportant) are turquoise, green, blue, red, white, yellow, and pink. The default value is blue.
screen A reference to an instance of a Screen object.
newFieldColor A Fieldcolor enumeration to set the new protected field's color. Valid values (case unimportant) are turquoise, green, blue, red, white, yellow, and pink. The default value is blue.
