Clicking Choose Signal Colors... from the context menu will open up a color chooser dialog.

This dialog contains the elements of a standard color chooser dialog at the top, followed with two preview fields which display the user's color choice in both the dark and light color context which is available as a choice in the user interface.

Further below, there are three buttons that provide the main functionality of the color selector dialog:

an "Apply to selected channels" button that applies the current color selection to all selected channels,
an "Apply pattern" button that applies the pattern in the first N channels to all further channels,
an "Undo all changes" button that allows the user to go back the colors that were in use when the dialog was first opened.
