- I had a problem (perhaps like yours =- can't tell since you don't
- describe your problem) where the highlited items in FCIIR2 were
- impossible to read due to a lack of contrast between the text and the
- black highlight.
-
- I run an 8 colour WB and had FC's coulurs set to "use WB" , I manually
- reset that to "4" colours and the problem went away. BTW I more or less
- use the MagicWB colours. Since I don't have a colour printer I only use
- colours to highlight document items and menus so > 4 colours isn't
- important to me.
