Help with font color
Wednesday, November 3, 2010 by k10w3 | Discussion: Skinning
Can somebody tell me where, in SkinStudio, I can change the color of this font? (the one circled in red)

Thanks, Xiandi. The next time Neil wants to know what we'd like skinned that isn't already included, I guess I have another item to add to the list.

I have seen it change on some blinds...some of mine and vstylers...but despite a lot of trial and error I was never able to find what caused it.

Isn't it in the Control Panel text section? 
I changed it once, and wasn't sure how either, but I thought it was in Control panel........... I'm probably wrong..... lol

Apparently not but it could possibly be one of those things win7 has proprietary control over because I noticed your font color in the example is green where mine on a blind I'm working on is dark red (maroon). The text colors I'm using on the blind in the Control Panel text section are dark brown, gold (kinda) and tan. I don't see the shades equaling dark red after some weird Win blending but who knows?

It's different with every skin--I still can't figure out what controls it, but it's certainly nothing I can find to "fix" on my end -- I wanted to change it on Fang Shui, because it's purple on that skin, which just doesn't go at all. I don't have purple in any other parts of the skin...maybe it's like those funky "mood rings" from back in the 70s...it just turns a color depending on how hot the thing is.

I've seen it turn that dark maroon color on one of mine and purple on one of vstylers. I thought it was something in the control panel too and I think that is what CAUSES it...you just dont get to pick the color.

or as we say down south "moot rangz"... 
maybe need to start a wish list for WB skinners...unless there's already one floating around?

As far as I know, it cannot be changed.
