Solution:

1. Insert a Round LED on the Front panel.
2. Right-click on the Round LED and select Advanced»Customize from the shortcut menu.
3. In the editor, click on the small key to switch to Customize Mode.
4. Right click in the middle of the Round LED and select Copy to Clipboard from the menu.
5. Close the editor without saving.
6. Add a Framed Color Box on the front Panel.
7. Repeat step 2 and 3 on the Framed Color Box.
8. Right click in the middle of the Framed Color Box and then select import an image of clipboard from the menu.
9. Close and save.

You can repeat all these operations for the background framework of the Framed Color Box.
