Highlighting text.

In the past I had a color wheel available to select the color I want to use to color my Bible texts. This is my preferred way of studying the Bible. For example I use a brown as the color for commands/things I should or should not do.

Unfortunately brown is no longer available. I hope that custom highlight color would make a comeback in Logos 5. But they aren't. Any reason why I cannot choose a color from the color wheel to highlight my Bible texts? Would love to see the color wheel to make a comeback.

Caspar– I am not sure what you are talking about a "color wheel," but brown is certainly available, as is customized highlighters. Have you opened your highlighting tool from the tools menu? I'm on my phone or I'd give you a screen shot.

let me help out:

Tools / Highlighting will give the various "palettes" with a brown highlighter available under "Highlighter Pens" - Caspar, maybe you just looked under "Solid Colors"?

If you use highlighters regularly, it helps to just assign a character key to them - I use e.g. y for yellow and o for orange.

In my second screenshot I right-clicked on Brown Highlighter and clicked Shortcut Key: Logos shows me that e.g. B for Brown is available.

Thank you for your answer. But this is what I was referring to. When
you want to create your own palette there is no brown available or other
variations of colors. Wasn't there a way in the past to select any
color you want from the color wheel?

There is brown in your own screenshot! It is the third one down on the left. If it isn't appearing brown, you may need to adjust your monitor. Also, depending upon the style chosen, it may appear more or less "brown." When I chose "solid color," it was considerably darker than your screen shot.

I don't remember that, but it would be good if you could.
