Palettes are special objects, which execute the connection mechanism of D2000 system object with a graphic object placed in a picture. Palettes determines acting of graphic object in dependence on the values of individual complex value attributes of D2000 system object.

The figure above illustrates the principle of palette functioning in the D2000 system. Individual parameters of the graphic object are changed according to the values of complex value of the object connected to the graphic object. The changes are immediately visible in picture opened in process D2000 HI. For example: if the limit status of the object X is changing from HL to VHL and the display palette, used for the graphic object, defines a blinking fill for the VHL status, the graphic objects starts blinking.
The process D2000 GrEditor uses three types of palettes:
