Digital Workshop

I don't know if this is something that only I encounter but it is a bit of a problem. When you click on an object in the Object tab of the organizer the selected object gets a blue background and the text colour turns white. You can recognise what is selected immediately.

However, if you click on the object directly in your workspace the selected object in the organizer has a very light blue background and the text remains black. This is, sometimes , a bit difficult to recognise and in some cases you have to scroll around to see which of the objects is really selected

Is there any option that can change this ?

Klaus --

I fired up OPUS XE and tested what you described. I get the Dark Blue and White combo when I select items directly from the Organizer, but when I select items from the Workspace, I get Black text and a Gray background, which is very easy to see on my computer monitor.

I unsussessfully looked in several places to see if I could change my font and color combinations for the Organizer. If it's there, I'm not aware of it. So I'm wondering why we have different colored backgrounds with the same software... Have you customized your monitor or Windows in any way?

The colours are determined by your Windows colour scheme settings. They will be the same in all tree controls (Explorer for example).

Thanks for the help, both of you ! The problem may be the display of my notebook which probably makes the grey look like light blue .

Anyway, I tried to find a way I could change the display of such a marked item in the windows colour scheme, but I couldn't find it.

Duncan , Fred do you know where I can change this, I mean only the light grey background, nothing else

Right-click free space on desktop
Choose Properties from popup menu
click on the Appearance tab of the Display Properties dialog box
Click on the Advanced button
Find the item you want to change by selecting it from the Item dropdown.
Click on OK
Click on OK

Thanks but the appearance setting I'm looking for is not there. You can only change the appearance of a directly selected object and not the background colour of folder it corresponds to. But thanks for the help anyway

In Fred's screenshot its the second colour I want to change.
