So I just want to add one more line in this area scheme. Like the pic Im posting. But I type in a value. ie I want to make a storage room area color. but it just tells me, "invalid input" no matter what I type. numbers or letters etc.

please, the help files for this are some of the worst in a help file of any program Ive used. and I cant figure out what I should be doing to get a new line of area color on the list. 

sorry if confusing. see picture. it kinda shows what I need.

THanks in advance.

Cannot be done. The Area Type parameter is hard coded. You can add your own though:

1. manage tab->project parameters->add (name it, type: text; instance; category: areas),

2. in ‘edit color scheme’ window->under scheme definition->color: pick newly created parameter,

3. use ‘+’ sign to add values you want
