# Color configuration `taskwarrior-tui` reads values from your `taskwarrior`'s `taskrc` file (default: `~/.taskrc`). ![](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/1813121/96684390-bf173e80-1338-11eb-971c-ae64233d142e.png) For example, `color.active` is used to style the active task. If you would like to try it, open your `taskrc` file and change `color.active=white on blue`. So `color.active` will take precedence over `color.overdue`. You can see what `color.active` is by running `task show color.active` in your favorite shell prompt. The following color attributes are supported: ```plaintext color.deleted color.completed color.active color.overdue color.scheduled color.due.today color.due color.blocked color.blocking color.recurring color.tagged ```
