     With this example, column which renders 'name' field will have its text colored in white on a customer records.
 
+* In the tree view declaration, use ``options='"color_field": "my_color"'`` attribute in the ``tree`` tag::
+
+    ...
+    <field name="arch" type="xml">
+        <tree string="View name" colors="color_field: my_color" >

+            ...
+        </tree>
+    </field>
+    ...
+
+* You can also use ``colors="bg_color_field: my_color"`` to defined the field name that will be used
+  for the background color of the line.
+
 * If you want to use more than one color, you can split the attributes using ';':
