Title: Screen background color
Post by: bmw on October 08, 2022, 09:22:05 PM
Is there a way to set the screen background color on Ultimate?  On the computer I normally, use it is gray but on a new installation it is black.  Is there anyway to set the color on the new installation so that it matches the gray screen background?

Thanks in advance for any help.

Qimage has various skins that allow you to change the look of the UI but you are saying the same settings on one machine produces a gray UI and on another, the same background of Qimage windows and dialogs is black?  The default skin has a gray background for all windows and dialogs so if they look black on one particular system, you are probably going to need to correct the problem with that system: calibrate and profile the monitor so gray no longer looks black.

That is... unless I made the wrong guess regarding what you mean by "screen" background color?

Regards,
Mike

Mike is suggesting that you try this: See screen snap 038.
These are Qimage UI color selections.
As Mike said, if you mean the whole monitor, a lot more information is needed.
