Common background colour

The common background is light gray. Customised background colours can be used if they fit better the application colour style or for branding.

Active colour

Active colour is used to highlight elements which are selected in a view or to highlight the element user is interacting with.

For example, when the user is using the thumbler to set the date in the date picker, the "wheel" that is currently being adjusted and the corresponding date section in the date label are highlighted in blue.
