The problem with using the <> macro as a parameter value in the 
<$vars> widget is that the macro doesn't return a color value directly. 
 Instead, it returns transclusion widgets that, if subsequently rendered, 
results in a color value.  Here's the core definitions (from 
$:/core/macros/CSS):

\define colour(name)
<$transclude tiddler={{$:/palette}} index="$name$"><$transclude tiddler="$:/
palettes/Vanilla" index="$name$"/>
\end

\define color(name)
<>
\end

To retrieve the actual color *value*, you can use the <$wikify> widget, 
which "captures" the rendered output from the macro and stores that in a 
variable, like this:

<$wikify name="_c" text=<>><>

Note: in this example, "tiddler-background" produces "invisible" text, 
since the foreground text color is the same as the background tiddler 
color.  I assume that was your intention.

Let me know how it goes.

Hi Rustem,

Try this:

\define colorize() color:$(_c)$;

\define cn()
  >>
some text
  
\end

Specifying a color directly:

<$vars _c=red><>

Specifying a color using a macro:

<$wikify name="_c" text="<>">
<>


Best wishes

Jeremy.

Try with the setwidget, or perhaps wikifywidget instead. The varswidget is 
not as powerful and I don't think it can handle macrocalls as arguments. 
Not sure.
