Matching questions: can you change the blue line color?

I don't know how to change the width of the line but here is a tip from my book Lectora 201 - What They Don't Tell You In Class on how to change the color.
How to Change the Color of the Lines in a Matching Question
They are always blue unless you are on a blue background (then they are white). The matching lines are actually created (in HTML) by creating a layer that contains a whole bunch of little images. The images in question are GIF files (named either o_0000ff.gif or o_ffffff.gif). The first one is blue and the second one white (the file names are their RGB colors for geeks). So, to make a long story short ... if you want to change ALL of your matching questions to a different color, just create your own o_0000ff.gif (use the one Trivantis supplies and don't resize it) and place it in the published html/images folder. One other thing, you will need to edit the trivantis-match.js and change the definition of line Color to the color you want for the line, otherwise the box that appears around the selection will still be "blue".

I must add that you have to save the .gif file you create as the name of the color's hex #. So say you want dark red lines with a hex # 982e2e. You must change the color of the o_0000ff.gif to that color and re-save it in the html/images folder as o_982e2e.gif. Also in the trivantis-match.js change the definition of line Color to 982e2e.
