Highlight glow ehancement.

[hezahonker]

I am still getting lost with the focus. I can't always see where the glow is on the screen. Is there some way that can be more apparent? I especially loose it on small buttons like the date left right arrows in day view up at the top.

I am glad to see someone else ask for this. I was beginning to think it was just my old eyes.:D

HAHA, I thought I was losing my mind yesterday when I lost track of my highlight bar!

What ideas do you have to make the highlight more apparent Nancy?

[hezahonker]

Hi Mark, you must be getting old like me!:eek: :p

Hi Eric, I guess if I had to really think about it I would probable change the button color along with a glow. The button color could be a contracting color in each given scheme. If I have time later, maybe I can do a photoshop mock up.:D

I agree a contrasting color would be the way to go. Possible a bright yellow or a bright orange of some sort. any color actualy that isnt in the theme would be helpful

[hezahonker]

yes, my thoughts exactly. Something bright preferrably. When I get home later I will do the mock.

How about this color? :D

Yellow seems to get lost.

This might work.

Red seems to be the most contrasting color for most of the themes. I vote for a red focus highlight!
Cheers

I think that a Fireman should have red. :D

I mentioned this elsewhere, but will re-post here. I am constantly getting "lost" on the screen, as I find the very subtle shading that highlights the active item to be very hard to find. Perhaps you should reverse the colours on the active cell, or just use different, contrasting colours altogether, though that could be hard with the themes. OR, since you DO have themes, allow the user to select their own contrasting colour. It is URGENT you do something, as this makes the programme very hard to maneuver.

Nathan,

Just to keep you and everyone updated. This is going to be addressed in a future release. :up:
