Question: How do you specify which color to use with TColorGrid from the samples page? Why isn't it documented?

Answer:

Use the public methods ForegroundColor and BackgroundColor. For example, in the OnChange event of a ColorGrid component you could do the following:

procedure TForm1.ColorGrid1Change(Sender: TObject);

begin

   Edit1.Font.Color := ColorGrid1.ForegroundColor;

   Edit1.Color := ColorGrid1.BackgroundColor;

end;

None of the components on the "Samples" page are documented.
