Color is here!

Mockingbird is now in color.

You can change the color and font color of your widgets.   Just select a widget, click the "Color" or "Font Color" item in the toolbar, and get coloring.  

You can save your own colors by dragging colors from the preview swatch to the empty swatches we've provided for you.  These colors will be saved along with your project.

For your convenience, if a widget has text on a background, the font color will set itself automatically to be legible as you adjust the background color.  For example, if you make your widget black, the font color will change to white.  If you set your own font color, then automatic font color setting gets turned off until you decide to turn it back on.

Here's a quick screencast highlighting your newly granted coloring capabilities:

Let us know what you think of the new, more colorful Mockingbird.
