Is it possible to have different colors for different text in a single text box?
For example, 
1st line of text is black
2nd line of text is blue
3rd line of text is red.

        str = { ...
    '\color{black}1st line of text', ...
    '\color{blue}2nd line of text', ...
    '\color{red}3rd line of text'};
t = text(0.5,0.5,str);

				str = '\color[rgb]{0.1,0.8,0.95} Sample rgb text';
text(0.5,0.5,str)
Note that for this to work, the text() Interpreter property must be 'tex' (which is the default)
