Color meaning when preparing an object to be sliced in prusaslicer

As the object is manipulated in preparation for slicing, it frequently changes color. Can someone please direct me to a resource that indicates what each color means?

You mean this?

It should appear once slicing is complete.

No, but thanks to some helpful reddit folks, I've got some of it. Prior to slicing: green=item selected, filament color=not selected, blue=outside print bed. There was another color that appeared which I could not identify nor reproduce in order to screenshot.

RE:

I think PJ13 is asking about the colours in the 3D Editor View.  Things like:

green = selected model

Orange = unselected model

Red = Support blocker

Purply blue = Support enforcer

Yellow = Modifier

Purply blue = Support enforcer

greyish = Negative volume...

I don't think there is a complete list published.  If there's anything then it will be on the PS knowledge base https://help.prusa3d.com/category/prusaslicer_204 (but I don't think there's anything there).  

Also a couple of points, support enforcer is blue,  there is also non printable (which changes the colour of a part to a darker version of the base colour, and the orange colour for not selected isn't always orange as its based on the filament definition which can be edited to whatever you want.
