Title: Needing Help With Yet Another Text Issue (Utorrent, etc.)...
Post by: JMB on October 03, 2014, 05:07:00 pm
 :S Hey Guys, me again....

If I'm using, say 3am's Pachenko for 8.1 vs, my UTorrent menu text colors when highlighted (items with red outline in screenshots) are governed by
Fonts, Colors, & System Metrics > Fonts & System Metrics>HIGHLIGHT (and HIGHLIGHTTEXT)

...But. In my Work Nite Shift vs version, changing those colors has no effect whatsoever on the text or highlight....my text goes to BLACK when moused-over and when selected, with a very slight grey highlight.

Something similar happens with both the Details and Services tabs in my Taskmanager ui:

I appreciate, as always, any help.

I only added these textcolors to the port here:

Windows 8 (For Testing Purposes Only) > Static
Buttons, Boxes, & Controls > Boxes > Edit > Basic > EditText

Likely the edit one is what you need. I didn't change anything else.

That black text in Task Manager isn't changeable. Is it really changed in my port?

I'll change those areas then, see what happens. Thanks again, man! Oh, the TM in your Pachenko? No, the black text is there on mouseover and select just like in Nite Shift. I can live with that, but I really want that UTorrent highlight to be visible, lol.   :)

 :( Not working for me. There was already text there in both places. Changed colors, tried adding hot colors, etc....No dice.

(solved) Lists, Menus, & Tabs > ListView > ListItem

I had to add FILLCOLOR (s) to the various states.  :)

Thanks man!

(I think Jamie (neiio) had the text in the locations you mentioned already, from before I got ahold of the vs)
