Add a new colour

Question

Hello!!
I'm trying to add a new colour "cafe" brown in english. I went to (symbol design --> Material --> Solid --> override color) and just pick the same colours and I need it for a good description. Perhaps is a very silly question but I'm a new user and can't do that.
There must be a library with more colours or a way to change it.

Hi Carmen, 
I am a little unclear if you want to add an actual color to your library to use to color symbols or if you need a new color "textual description" to describe your material. Some of this is dependent upon how the particular files you are using are setup (ie library , project). 
 
if you want to create a new color to use to color graphic symbols, this can be done by editing your library. goto SYMBOL DESIGN ...colors..here you can create new color by putting in the rgb values and give the color a name. Here is link to wiki - creating custom colors 
 communities.bentley.com/.../create-custom-colors 
 
If you are trying to describe the color with text in your material description and you need to add a term to the list. goto input ..right click on the field where you pick your colors...goto properties. in the lookup It will tell you the name of the lookup and the type (ie LIBTBL!Colors) 
 
This says the list is stored in a library table called colors. If you goto DATA DESIGN...Library Table...from the yellow drop down pick the name (ie colors) and you can edit the list. 
 
Again this is file specific . If these suggestions do not work click on may name and e-mail me your contact info. I will need to look at your specific gINT files
