GT3 Font

August 11, 2011 3:50:27 PM from WinCustomize ForumsWinCustomize Forums

Hiyas, all. I'm new to customizing, and having a slight problem with a skin...my apologies if this is wrong forum to post.  I'm using the windowblind GT3, and I love it, but the font in menu lists is so faint, as to be almost not there. If someone would be so kind as to show me where to post a screenshot, so you could see, or just where to adjust exactly, in skin studio, to just make font darker, I would be most appreciative~

It doesn't matter which url link I choose from Image shack, it only shows a broken link.

Try going to the fonts tab in WB config and select 'Change individual skin fonts'. Find the font(s) that are hard to read and either make them bold or change them to something easier to read.

I have GT3 applied to Windows7 64 bit and I'm not getting the same thing.

 

What version of WB and what OS are you using?

 

*Edit*

I was able to see your screeny before you deleted it. Try saving your screeny as a jpg next time

Lol, I changed every single font to bold, it didn't help, the menu items are still a pale pale unreadable text. I've been trying to fix tis for about 4 hours. I think I'm going to try and find a diff WB. My thanks, for all of your help~

open the windowblinds config , then click on the colours tab, then click on change skins colours, then scroll through the list until you find the item you are looking for and click change color, choose the color you want then click close window...reapply the skin to see if the changes are suitable

When I need more precise font control I goto the 'Window Color and Appearance' section in Window 7, similar to display properties in XP.

To find it in Windows 7, search "metrics" in the start menu search. Select 'Change window colors and metrics'
