Weird Question - Macola Colors

[pronet74]

I have an elderly co-worker who can't see the dimmed out text in the macola window. Such as when you view an order, it's a light grey. Is there any way I can fix this? I'm using Progression 7.5.103e with XP.

Have you tried changing the display properties for the terminal being used? If its a windows based PC, there are setting to improve definition. Try the high contrast settings until find something useable. Also look at the large font option. I have a user here using those and it works him.

Another choice is switching to a 640x480 resolution.

As far as I know, the only user accessible color choices are the company colors and that won't help you much.

Two Alternatives to Try, either is perfect:

1) Right mouse click on Desktop / Properties / Themes tab: Select Windows Classic theme. Light gray text will be darker.

2) Right mouse click on Desktop (XP Theme) / Properties / Appearance / Advanced / Item: select 3D objects and change the color to a darker grey coler. May require some experimentation.

IF this is a windows XP workstation then I would change the default "Theme" used by Winxp to Windows Classic instead of the WinXp theme.

This is done in the display properties under the Themes tab.

The winxp theme is slightly different than the Standard windows theme in that the background color and unavailable color are very close. Changing this should fix it if in WinXp.
