Alternative "Menu" span/template colours:

Please add you own suggestions.

Effect >Amplify The current - background is #FFFFCC

  1. Effect >Amplify #FFEEAA
  2. Effect >Amplify #FFEECC
  3. Effect >Amplify #FFDDAA
  4. Effect >Amplify #FFCCAA
  5. Effect >Amplify #FFCC99

I think 1, 2 and 3 look OK. 4 and 5 are too dark.

The "Key" template and a possible "Button" template

Press CTRL+A - the current key template
Click the Choose... button - bold with #EEEEEE
Click the Choose... button - plain with #EEEEEE

We could change the "key" template, then use the #DDDDDD background for buttons.

Please add your own suggestions.

  1. Press CTRL+A or click the Select All button
  2. Press CTRL+A or click the Select All button
  3. Press CTRL+A or click the Select All button
  4. Press CTRL+A or click the Select All button
  5. Press CTRL+A or click the Select All button
  6. Press CTRL+A or click the Select All button

I don't like the "cyans". 3, 5, 11 and 15 look OK to me.

It's hard to get "brown" without it being too dark or too orange.

  2. Press CTRL+A or click the Select All button

Alternative colours for the "advice" div/template

This is the current advice div. The background is #FEFFBF
This is the the advice div with background #FFEEAA.
This is the the advice div with background #FFDDAA.
Does this look too much like an editornote?
Here's an editornote for comparison. The background is #FFEECC


Comparing spans and templates to make sure they are identical

This is the menu span.
The is the menu template with some text following it.
This is the key span.
This is the key template with some text following it.
This is the shortcut template, identical to the key template with some text following it.
Wiki uses 'shortcut', manual uses 'key'. This template allows transferring of text from the wiki to the manual without having to change every occurrence of the 'shortcut' template to the 'key' template.

This is the intro div. Just putting in lots of text so it is wide enough to line wrap so I can see what happens at the right edge of the box. We need it to be identical in appearance to the span that it can be used in place of, and I am getting so wordy here I can't believe it.
