Assigns the specified color to the text of a text object with the specified ID number; returns a value of 0 if the color was successfully assigned, and a value of -2 if the specified object ID number is invalid.

==== Usage ====
<syntaxhighlight>Text_SetColor(ObjectID,TextColor)</syntaxhighlight>

==== Parameters ====
[[ObjectID]] - a numerical expression specifying the object ID number

[[TextColor]] - an expression specifying the text color

The color can be specified by a numerical expression representing an RGB color number or a legacy color value, or by one of 17 base color words.

==== Notes ====
An object-specific ID number is returned by [[Text_New]] when the text object is created.

==== Example ====
Assign the color blue to the text of a text object with the ID number of 3:

<syntaxhighlight>Value1=Text_SetColor(3,Blue);</syntaxhighlight>

Assign the RGB color 2138336 (Orange) to the text of a text object with the ID number of 3:

<syntaxhighlight>Value1=Text_SetColor(3,2138336);</syntaxhighlight>

Assign the legacy color 4 (Green) to the text of a text object with the ID number of 3:

<syntaxhighlight>[LegacyColorValue=True];
Value1=Text_SetColor(3,4);</syntaxhighlight>
