You can now close the colour editor by clicking on the red check-mark in the top right
corner of the window(Fig. 9).

Go back to the “Settings” window and just select your scheme to refresh the screen and
see the changes(Fig. 3).
Please Note: If you created a new scheme with a new name you will not see this name in
the schemes list, you will need to close the “Settings” window and reopen it in order to see
your new Scheme name in the drop-down list.
Now just go show your new scheme by posting a screenshot of your scheme on the
RadioDJ forum at https://www.radiodj.ro/community/index.php?board=38.0, so others can
see your scheme.
