How to change the WindowBlinds 6 UI color

Tuesday, September 18, 2007 by archangel25 | Discussion: WindowBlinds

Is there a way to change the UI interface in WindowBlinds 6?  With the text color being white and the UI being a blue to white blend, the text on the bottom half of the UI is unreadable, therefore impossible to read what settings to change.

Any help would be appreciated.

In WB6 the second item in the Look & Feel tab is called Colours (interestin how we're all United Kingdom there).
You can change the skin colors or the system colors from there.

I think they mean the wb config itself - notice the blue to white blend on your pic?

The text shouldn't be white unless the skin you're using is causing it.

My text is showing as black or dark grey.

In the about tab you can change the blend color but that's it.

Ah, thanks Troll.
I recall a post where there was a setting for Black UI . . was that in WB5 or 6?  I can't remember.

Did you have WB 5.5 set to use the black UI, I did, had to uninstall 6, reinstall 5.5, uncheck use black UI, apply changes, uninstall 5.5, reinstall 6. reboots between all steps.

I can take no credit, I was stumped until Neil questioned about black UI when I posted issue on WB6 feedback thread.

Go to the about tab and the slider on the bottom changes the color.
