BACKGROUND COLOUR & CONFIG FILES

BACKGROUND COLOUR & CONFIG FILES

BACKGROUND COLOUR & CONFIG FILES

(OP)
I'VE SET:
TOOLS>OPTIONS>system_background_color   192 206 190

"system_background_color   192 206 190" THIS LINE APPEARS IN BOTH CONFIG & CURRENT_SESSION FILES.

AFTER RESTARTING I'M STILL LEFT WITH A GREY BACKGROUND NOT LIMEISH GREEN- ANY IDEAS?

THANKS

RE: BACKGROUND COLOUR & CONFIG FILES

The 'blended background' checkbox is checked under View/Display Settings/System Colors.

To make your system come up this way every time, save the settings of the SYSTEM COLORS dialogue box by selecting File > Save in the dialogue box.  When asked where to save the file, pick a stable place you know.  Then add the path to your config.pro something like:

system_colors_file /share/ptc/pro_stds/configs/syscol.scl
The command in the system colors file controlling the background is:
BLENDED_BACKGROUND no
