midiboy Posted May 4, 2008 Share Posted May 4, 2008 (edited) Hi !Tried the new Vista theme. Looks great ! However,as you can see in the screenshot, the default colours are not very distinguishable from the new background image. Especially the white text at the bottom of the screen and the yellow items on the lower left are extremely hard to read.Can this be changed anywhere as a workaround ?Could the default be changed for the next version ?Thanks,Alex Edited May 4, 2008 by midiboy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kelsenellenelvian Posted May 4, 2008 Share Posted May 4, 2008 LOL yeah I forgot to change the colors.Look in the Vista theme folder and open wpi.css with notepad. In here you will find the color values for the text (And things like font sizes)Remember it recognizes html color codes. SO google html color code chart if you need help with that.

cool400 Posted May 6, 2008 Share Posted May 6, 2008 Hi Kel,this was the same issue I had - I couldn't ready anything in the bottom left corner.So it's easy to change the font-color and maybe the font itself via the CSS-file, right?BTW, have you heard anything from the "button"-guy about which font/app he used for the english buttons, because I want to have them in german!Best regardscool400 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kelsenellenelvian Posted May 6, 2008 Share Posted May 6, 2008 Yes it is very easy to change the font and size via the css files. No I haven't been able to get ahold of him yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mritter Posted May 7, 2008 Share Posted May 7, 2008 I think I had WolfX2 put the text on the dock images. Any one can do it:Take the no text image, copy it, load it into a graphics program, put some text over it, merge the layers. You then have a blank image and a text image. The code fades them in/out to give the appearance of several images. Be sure to call them the correct names. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cool400 Posted May 7, 2008 Share Posted May 7, 2008 Thanks - I will try it out! I just wondered which font has been used and how I could obtain the "shadow"-effect?BTW, what do I have to change in the wpi.css to change the font and the color of the main-page (where all apps and their checkboxes are listed)? There are so many sections - I don't know which one is the right one Best regards and thanks a lotcool400 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kelsenellenelvian Posted May 7, 2008 Share Posted May 7, 2008 Wolf ALWAYS uses Photoshop cs3...I would just use segeo-ui font as that is vistas main font style. as for the raised effect I dunno. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
midiboy Posted May 8, 2008 Author Share Posted May 8, 2008 Hi Kelsenellenelvian,thanks for the infos. Which colors will you be using for the next version ? Would make sense to make the same changes for now ... Thanks,Alex Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kelsenellenelvian Posted May 8, 2008 Share Posted May 8, 2008 Actually wolf has decided to try and best me for the vista theme so I am not even sure if this will be the same theme in the next version So go ahead and use whatever colors are most visible to you and maybe even post your wpi.css for others to use.
