Remarks
XAML Usage for Colors
You cannot instantiate objects from this managed class in XAML, but you can use its static properties to provide property values in XAML. There are additional named colors that can be specified in XAML, but these are not backed by static property values of Colors. For information about other color usages in XAML, including named colors and ARGB or scARGB syntax, see Color.
