Title: VisualPrefs colours changing
Post by: motorollin on April 13, 2007, 12:55:21 PM
My VisualPrefs colour settings for active and inactive windows are always correct when the machine boots, but often if I run an application which opens on the Workbench screen the colours get changed. Is there any way to stop this?

I believe the pens VisualPrefs uses can be locked in the 'Color Locking cyclemenu.

My bad moto, I thought the thread was about to be splurged with endless 1600x720 screenshots, or such. Gallery pics are a whole different thing though.

EDIT: I can choose when to look at them, and the thread remains readable.

Here (http://www.amiga.org/gallery/index.php?u=3540). My screenshots are on the 2nd page. They were actually taken on my A1200 which I no longer have, but my A4000 is set up exactly the same.

Meh, AIAB is cheating. Build it yourself from a plain 3.1 install, then I'll be impressed :-P

@moto, link copied, thank you.

Mmm, you like it dark, don't you.

It's easy on the eyes. Also, the borders are light which makes it easy to distinguish the edges of windows.

Heh.

He DID build it himself from a plain 3.1 install -- since he created the AIAB package!  ;-)
