I agree and would like the capability. As noted by cmbkln, it supports visual consistency with the "post-its" strategy. Also, it would support highlight color theming promoted in several productivity/memory retention programs. Additionally, for different learners - ADA and non-ADA - the ability to use different colors supports "seeing", comprehending and organizing information. Please note - for many in these demographics, changing font colors actually generates more confusion; the productivity/advances occur and are more profound by changing/highlighting the "background" behind the font (blocks of themed data). Dyslexia is one of the most common language-based learning disabilities (70-80%), representing approximately 5-10% of the US population (with some estimates as high as 17%). As we move away from paper and paper based tools, it is important incorporate similar capability in digital environment for all demographics. Thanks. T
