Using the Text Colours Tab

When a technology file is used with a footprint design, the component text colour is transferred to the text column, because this is consistent with their final use in a PCB design. Similarly for Doc. Sym. Text colours when editing a documentation symbol. The Comp. Text and Doc. Sym. Text columns are therefore not needed when editing a footprint or documentation symbol.
