Display splitbars using this colour | |
If ticked, splitbars will be shown using the selected colour. If unticked, splitbars will blend in with the background of a window. Splitbars divide the panes in a window and can be dragged to adjust the sizes of each pane. Normally splitbars are hidden but you can choose to make them visible by setting a colour and ticking this option. |

Note We use Internet Explorer to display events and profiles, and so the colours used will be the same as the colours set for browsing the internet. You cannot change the basic colours of black text on a white background though. |
