I'm trying to plot using Orange color No success

Red and Grenn work ok.

Is it possible to
 
Code
 
If FLagorange = True then begin
   Plot4(1, "Flag");
   SetPlotColor (4, Orange);
end;
I did try a numeric number instead of "Orange"... No success

Where could I found a list of the acceptable color. I already know:
Red, Green, Blue, Yellow. How about the others?

Here is one way I found in the help file:
Example Create an Orange color plot using the RGB color combination:
Plot1(Open);
SetPlotColor(1,RGB(224,160,32));

Yes this seems to be an odd limitation from EasyLanguage compared to NinjaTrader's pallet for instance. But as JVentura pointed out, it is easily overcome. You can google "RGB Wheel" and find plenty of quick sites to help you get the rgb values you need to input for the color you want.
