Text colour on buttons in IE?

Saturday, January 28, 2006 by Hapkido | Discussion: WindowBlinds

Okay, I'm trying to remedy that perennial problem of the dark text colour on dark coloured buttons on some favorite WB skins. I see this problem mostly with IE, e.g., the "Create" button on this page looks like this:

So, what I'm wanting to know is where in SKS can the text colour that is displayed on these type of buttons be changed? Any other helpful information would also be appreciated.

I found what I needed in my particular case. However, the modification I made resolved most of the dark text but not all. So, I'll be investigating this further. For the benefit of others who might run into this same situation, here is the location in SkinStudio where I changed the colour:

On the left: "Miscellaneous/Colors"

On the right: 3D Controls/Text - System Buttons"

Those other button text colors you are searching for are hard coded and cannot be changed. Changing the system button text color might cause problems on some websites.

Thanks for responding. I was beginning to wonder if anyone would reply. hehe Okay.. I'll not waste my time looking for a way to change the text color on those "other" buttons since they are hard-coded. So far, though, I haven't run into any noticeable anomalies with button text on either IE or Windows buttons.

Again, thanks for taking the time to share your knowledge.
