help with lowres visibility
« on: March 05, 2006, 12:40:43 am »
I use a joystick to navigate and it is very hard for me to see on my TV which song is highlighted.  I use the low-res.skn and would like to know if there are settings i can change to make the background of the song text a different color when it is highlighted. Or  maybe there are other suggestions?

Not the background, but you can change the color of the text.  Edit low-res.skn with a text editor and add the following line to the Titlestrips section:

FontFocusColor=deepskyblue

Does that help?

Yes it works awesome!    How can I make the selection and navigation buttons (the red buttons in the middle) so I can see them highlighted better as well?  Thanks Chris
