160.0. "Bad visibility with green colour" by STKEIS::BYSTAM (The answer is 42) Fri Jan 14 1994 09:14

Hi,

After using the previous version of the internal fieldtest version for
OpenVMS I have some comments on the colours used in the Console log and
Event history windows.

The green colour is impossible to read with a white background. I know that i
can change the colour if I like to but wouldn't it be better to have a readable 
colour/font setup or even change to black background to increase readability.

No wI have to put my eys about 10-15 cm from the screen to be able to read the 
text at all. Otherwise it's just a green blurr.

Stefan,

  The Log and History windows in the upcoming EFT version will
  actually use the background color you have set for the main
  C3 window, so this should I hope releive your problem.

Cheers,
Phil

    Stef,
    
       You should also be able to adjust the event color in the C3. You
    could change it from a light green to a dark green, hopefully making it
    more readable. As for the font size, we've discussed this internally as
    well and realize it's an issue.
