Shadows on my labels
Monday, January 15, 2007 by Snap Hook | Discussion: DesktopX
Where in the world did that shadow on all my label text come from? I created a .png container and dragged a shortcut to it and the label has a shadow, making it very difficult to read, not to mention ugly. I have tried the relations and states, changing WB skins, altering the label text and colors on the builder desktop tab, even sticking my right finger in my nose and passing gas while keeping my eyes crossed, all to no avail. I even reloaded desktops known not to have shadows, and now they have shadows, too.
Does anyone know, 1. where the shadows came from, and 2. how to get rid of them?
And don't tell me, "The Shadow knows". I already asked him and he's not talking.

They come back with any label I add and I don't want to depend on my memory for icon recognition alone.

Delete the label and assign a tooltip.
summary tab - tool tip - click the 'unassigned' - put in what you want on mouseover

Hadn't thought of that. I am still wondering how tthe shadows got there and what I may have done to, all of a sudden, have them appear.
Thanks,

Got no idea when shadows showed up. But then I have no short term. Still haven't found out how to turn them off.

I guess I'll reply to this to get it back on top.
I still haven't found a fix for this. A black shadow w/black text makes for an unreadable panel. Does anyone know the answer to why these shadows appeared and how to get rid of them.
