Value

The penColor is a color reference. The colorName is any standard color name.

The RGBColor consists of three comma-separated integers between zero and 255, specifying the level of each of red, green, and blue; or an HTML-style color consisting of a hash mark (#) followed by three hexadecimal numbers, one for each of red, green, and blue.

By default, the penColor is "0,0,0" (black).

Description

Use the penColor property to change the color used with the pencil, line, and curve paint tools, and for the borders of shapes.

If the penPattern has been set since the last time the penColor was set, the pattern is used instead of the color specified by penColor. In other words, the last-set property takes priority.
