When the definitions are applied

When you select the Display check box in the Coloring section of the Preferences window, the events in an event list are colored according to the settings specified in the system color definition file.

If a user changes the settings in the system color definition file during the login process, the new settings take effect when the user restarts JP1/IM - View.
