Is your goal to let the user create, and save, any number of color configurations, and pick-and-choose which saved configuration to use at any time ?

And, is it also a goal that you could have more than one C# application using this facility, able to access all the configurations saved from any application that used it ?

Have you tried to write any code yet. If so, show us some code, or tell us what ideas you have now about how you can do this.

My vote of #1: it's rather obvious that you didn't really look at the content of the links you posted: the first is irrelevant to the question asked; the second is to a broken web-site of a commercial software toolkit.

Only the third link has any value.

Copy-pasting links from a Google search is not a "solution" ... unless you know what the content of the link is, and, based on your knowledge, decide it is relevant to the question asked.
