<DIV><SPAN class=332053322-10022005><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2>The
short answer is yes. Signs could be colored when pulling from the
dictionary. I would only need some rules to apply.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

color<BR><BR></FONT></DIV>Cool!<BR><BR>Could it be possible, instead of saving
color to the dictionary, to apply color to the sign when pulling from the
dictionary? Or alternatively, for teaching purposes, could it be possible to
have a way to assign colors to different categories of symbols (i.e.,
handshapes, contact, face, etc.) and then it would color the sign
appropriately? That might be a handy tool for teachers or people developing
teaching materials?<BR><BR>Just some thoughts.<BR><BR>Stuart <BR>On Feb 10,
