Protocol Colors tab
The protocol status color is shown in a rectangular bar under the protocol status message and is colored according to the protocol status.
This protocol status color is updated when any protocol status is changed.
By default, every protocol color is distinct from the default depth colors of red, green, and yellow.
All protocols have the same status color settings.
The protocol status color is set on the Protocol Colors tab of the Network Monitor Properties dialog box.
The protocol status color settings are user-specified client settings, and are saved in client.ini.
For example:
[user_<name>_100.0.0.0_6.2_chapard_netmonitor]
protocolcolors=true
protocolcolors_file=-8355712 -16777216 -16777216 -65536 -16731648 -10040065 -10040065 -16777038 -20561
protocolcolors_tcpip=-16737895 -16777216 -16777216 -16777216 -16731648 -10040065 -10040065 -16777038 -20561
The value for the protocolcolors
key indicates the status:
-
true
means display. -
false
means do not display.
After protocolcolors
are the protocol status color settings for the
individual protocols.
- The protocol name is in the key. This must be lowercase.
- The protocol status color settings for
individual protocols following the fixed prefix
protocolcolors_
. - The color setting is a number that represents the RGB color value in the default RGB integer. Bits 24-31 are alpha, 16-23 are red, 8-15 are green, and 0-7 are blue.
- The delimiter among colors are an empty space.
- The color values are in a fixed sequence for individual protocol status.
- If a protocol is not found here and
protocolcolors
is true, then the default color is used. - If no
protocolcolors
setting is found, then no protocol status color is shown. In this case, it works the same as havingprotocolcolors
be false.
