I wouldn't use it. Elemts have the same placement as in http://www.klabs.be/~fpiat/linux/boot/grub/grub-v2-640x480_overlay.svg but you can choose the background/foreground of: - normal text (including borders) - highlight text among a selection of 16 colors: black blue green cyan red magenta brown light-gray dark-gray light-blue light-green light-cyan light-red light-magenta yellow white this 16-color limit only applies to the text.
