## SetTextColor

SetTextColor — Set general text color

## Synopsis

    $plot->SetTextColor($color)

## Description

`SetTextColor` sets the default color which is used for legend text, tick labels, and data labels.

## Parameters

`$color`

  Color value to use. See Section 3.5, “Colors” for more on color values.

## Notes

The default text color is black.

Starting with PHPlot-5.7.0, there are more specific functions to set the color for labels: SetDataLabelColor, SetDataValueLabelColor, and SetTickLabelColor. All of these elements default to using the color set with `SetTextColor`.

Starting with PHPlot-6.0.0, the legend text color can be set with SetLegendTextColor. If that function is not used, then the legend text uses the color set with `SetTextColor`.

## Example

Legend text and data labels will be blue, and tick labels will be red. Note that the functions may be used in any order, with the same results.

    $plot->SetTextColor('blue');
    $plot->SetTickLabelColor('red');
