Using the UserColor component

This simple, visually powerful component is a centralized tool that adds color to other components.

The following list describes two ways to use this component:

	More legible chat: If you use the Chat component without the UserColor component, the text color is black for all users. Adding the UserColor component makes the chat text more legible and gives users a level of customization.
	Whenever you need virtual identity: A user-specific color is similar to a user name. The UserColor component lets you give users this enhanced sense of identity without much coding effort.

Try using the SimpleConnect, UserColor, Cursor, and Chat components together. Users can see their text and cursors showing their name, color, and position on the Stage. The user color provides for a richer user experience.

To use this component in your application, see Chat component.
