TEXT COLOR

TEXT COLOR

(OP)
I need a tip: when I run a draft analysis on a part I move the cursor on a surface and it shows the draft angle next to the cursor. The only problem is that the color of the text (draft angle reading) is a light green color which is barely legible. I would like to change the color to black. I've checked the help menu and this forum but no luck. Any tips are appreciated.

Thanks.

RE: TEXT COLOR

You should be able to change that in your system options>colors>dynamic highlights.

RE: TEXT COLOR

But what he is talking about is the draft analysis reading. There are 3 colors and that green is 1 of the 3. That color I don't think you can change. What color is your background? That might make a difference on how that color is seen.

Thanks 'automationbabe' but that's not it.
 
Scott, I use a gradient background with the following custom colors:
 top gradient: hue - 33,sat - 80, lum - 182, red - 214, green - 207, blue - 173
 bottom gradient: hue - 40, sat - 43, lum - 211, red - 230, green - 230, blue - 219

I didn't have this nuisance with SW '05

Thanks for the help.

RE: TEXT COLOR

Well what I have found out is that if when you are in the command of the Draft analysis and you get the oppotunity to Edit the color there (feature manager). When you select the color and click "OK" the next time you use the Draft analysis that color will be used.

I cannot get any text to show up in the graphics area in either SW06 or SW05.
