Without a scheme, the preset’s own is used. Any scheme goes with any preset.

The fourteen colour schemes, light and dark: page, card, text, headings and accent of each

The fourteen

The theme’s own first, then popular editor themes. In each, all text reaches a contrast of at least 4.5:1 on the page and on cards (WCAG AA); where an editor theme’s original light colours fall short, they’re a little darker here.

What a scheme colours

A scheme sets nine colours, each with a job. Code, the photo viewer’s labels and the trip map’s routes take theirs from the same nine, so everything matches. To change one or two, see Backgrounds and colours; to make a whole scheme, Your own presets and schemes.
