Master View - Can't read prop names
« on: January 29, 2021, 11:50:18 PM »
Just installed XLights for the first time.  Created a layout and started my first sequence.  Unfortunately, the master view window is black and all the prop names are invisible unless I click on them.  Is there a setting to change the view?  This happens on the Mac and PC versions.  Screen shot attached.  Thanks!

My guess is you need to update your video card driver to the latest from the manufacturers website.  There are also color options under preferences but if you just installed you should be on defaults which aren't black.

I have the same issue on two computers.  Mac and PC. So, I don't believe it is the video card drivers.

Well I gave you 2 suggestions and you did not indicate whether you tried either one.  So I guess we will just go on your beliefs and nothing gets fixed.

Sorry, hadn't had a chance to play with the preferences.  Got back on that computer tonight and found the "RowHeader Text" color was set to black.  Changed to white and can now see the headers.  Thanks!
