The Colour Scheme defines the palette System Optimiser uses to identify individual sources and microphones: the traces in the :ref:`Microphones Panel<mics>` graphs, the highlight colours of sources in the :ref:`3D View<3dview>`, microphone markers, and the colour indicators in the source list and :ref:`Sideview<sideview>` header.

The default 'Coda' Colour Scheme has been created to make graphs easier to read.

The internationally accepted 'Resistor' Colour Scheme is also included. The two predefined schemes are read-only.

It is possible to create a :ref:`Custom Colour Scheme<customcolourschemes>` by clicking the green 'Plus' icon.
