Drop down menu fonts are wierd.

Monday, April 24, 2006 by patrick24 | Discussion: WindowBlinds

Ok, here's my problem. Most of the drop down menu fonts look fine, but others, like in Photoshop have a wierd blueish outline and white color when activated. What attributes in SkinStudio control this? I have the fonts under menus > pull down item, bar item, favorites, and everything set just how I want them. Most of the time it looks just as I set it, but usualy in right click menu, Photoshop, and other times it looks like this:
It's probably something stupid, I just don't know.
Thanks.

Classic colors section...Selections/background highlighted is the blue outline color.

This only happens when using ClearType, BTW. Just another of the many little "wrinkles' skinners have to be aware of when skinning & limits the color choices for the menu button as a result (needs to be close to the highlight color to avoid what's shown in your image).
