Option to change preview background and text color...

[ghost zero]

i just tried modifying...

[Browser]
TextBackColor=
TextColor=

It's TxtForeColor & TxtBackColor!

Good evening,

• I tested just now as :

TxtForeColor=#8A1D18 —> Brown
TxtBackColor=255 255 213 —> Cream

That doesnt work as expected, the text is black and the BG is full red…
- Moreover, the font is still the crappy hard-coded MS Sans Serif, hence 29 upper ANSI characters are not supported
and shown as thick black “pipes” | …

    

- Pierre, what about the Dina programming complete font I send you at least twice, free to use ?

• Looking at the above, obviously, nope !
- But it could be a useful option, of course…

- I can confirm the issue here, using the Clo's values but both as normal decimal code like :

TxtBackColor=255 255 213
TxtForeColor=138 29 24

- If I invert the foreground and background colours, I get the opposite of the Clo's image above, say :  Red text and black BG.

Moreover, the font is still the crappy hard-coded MS Sans Serif…

- Yes it is, unfortunately. I guess that the time has come to change that antiquity for a decent complete font,
as suggested n… times.

Hello Paul !

• It works with my values you calculated “by complements” like :

TxtBackColor=14024703
TxtForeColor=1580426

• This coding is a pain in the neck, and I don't understand why the others are not supported in the whole INI,
but only here and there, that's incoherent.
- Moreover, plain decimal code, HTML and reverse HTML are easier to set, especially for an option
added by hand in the INI, and needed by average users as well…

I guess that the time has come to change that antiquity for a decent complete font…

{ Sigh…} May God hear your prayer!
- Even if that needs to distribute Dina with the programme, it's not a big deal, and just D&D it on the
<…\Windows\Fonts> folder installs it automatically (with XP, a Hacker's trick, thanks Roman !).
