Title: Changing ecenter & folder default text color?
Post by: os2monkey on 2007.11.12, 07:20:07
I installed a trial version of "Filebar" from bmtmicro:
http://www.bmtmicro.com/BMTCatalog/os2/00desktop.html

After installing, it changed the default menu text color on my ecenter and file manager menus from the default black to a pretty hard to read light blue.
Is there a way to change the default menu text back?
I looked at estyler and it doesn't appear to have that function and I don't see it elseware either.

Thanks,
David

I think thats the "static text" value in the theme manager. Try changing that color or applying another theme.

This is probably really obvious.. but

I'm going to local system /  system setup / appearance / window theme
But when it loads it just says "Frame control themes" in the title bar, and is just allowing me to change the look of maximize / minimize controls for windows.
I don't see any other theme controls that mention "static text".
How do you get to it?

I'm using ECS 1.2R at the moment.

Thanks!.

Its not window theme, its another theme selection. Scheme palette maybe? I think thats what it is called, I cant check now, in winXP

Hey thanks :).. Found it.
It was Scheme palette, and the item in question was "menu text".

Ah okay :)
Static text is stuff like the clock and free physical memory text.
