DescribeColor

DescribeColor contains color metadata information for a tab.

DescribeColor contains color metadata information for a tab. The describeTabs() call returns an array of DescribeTabSetResult values. Each DescribeTabSetResult contains an array of DescribeTab values, and each DescribeTab contains an array of DescribeColor values.

Each DescribeColor is associated with a Salesforce user interface theme. For more information on themes, see Identifying the Salesforce Style Your Users See in the Visualforce Developer’s Guide.
