Blue layout vs. Black layout color?

what does it mean when my layouts are "blue" highlighted vs. "black"?
I use Archicad 22 on a PC.

Blue Layouts

A Layout name is shown in blue if its current Revision has not been issued yet.

That is:
•the Layout has never been issued before (it’s a new Layout), or
•the Layout contains new Changes since its last Issue

Layout names can be listed in blue in the following locations:
•the Navigator
•the Issue History
•the Add Layout dialog box

The blue Layout feedback can be particular useful when you are adding Layouts to the current Issue.

Yes, it does not mean that there is anything wrong with the Layout.
