What do the purple SetTextColor block and the green TextColor block do? How is the action of these two blocks different?
Another thing, a better idea is to use integer colors. The small colored blocks from the color drawer can then be used directly.

[Faraz_Firoz]

Purple set text color set color of a particular item and green text color set color of whole item
