Address Object Color

An address object, with its outline color set to Link to Channel
Color, will have a white outline if the address is patched, or a dark
outline if the address is unpatched.

If the address object's outline color is set to Link to Channel
Intensity, the brightness of the outline color will be tied to the DMX
level of the address. The higher that the DMX value is the brighter
the outline color will be.

To set the outline color to Link to Channel Color or Intensity, select
the outline color icon in the color section of MS Object Properties.
Then select either Link to Channel Color or Link to Channel Intensity.
