SA_Pens index map

I know I already asked about SA_Pens, but I got it working and now I have a new question.

Does anyone have some kind of visual aid that points which pen to which GUI elements? For one thing I can't figure out what highlight pen does.

Highlight is the color that the bright side of a bevel box uses. The dark side uses the shadow pen.

I'm fairly certain the bright side of a bevel box is the shine pen.

There is no highlight pen. There is a highlight text pen. As the name indicates it can be used to print highlighted text. Prefs/Input uses it for example.

It seems that they often map to the same color, hence the confusion.

Yeah I meant that.

What does it actually get used in? Like what GUI element in intuition uses it by default?
