Is it possible to change the color on selected nodes?

Is it possible to change the color that shows when you hover your mouse over items on the launchbar without changing the color theme. Right now my bar is black with white text but when I hover over an item the item turns blue can I change that color?

Hmm.. that's an interesting question..
There is currently no option for that.  Can you elaborate a little?  Is the text shown when you hover unreadable? Or just a color you don't like?
Does the color depend on the theme you have chosen in the root Options node? What theme have you selected there?
In your docking bar, what option do you have set for "Background Display"?

[Dochappy]

no the text is fine I can read it. It's just the color that I would like to change or get rid of entirely. I chose the default themes and background display is set to colored and clWindowT

Well you should be able to disable the mouseover text.  Go to the dock node, and go to the second tab "Docking Bar 2" and disable "Hints on MouseOver" and maybe the "Use caption as hint.." one too.  Let me know if that works for you.

just tried and that didn't work either. would using an image as the dock's background fix it ?

[mouser]

Not sure what you mean when you said it didn't work -- are you saying you still see mouseover text when you hover over a node even with those settings unchecked?
Are you using a dock on the side of the screen or a pop-up or tray menu?

Could you take a screenshot to show me what's happening?

[Dochappy]

I've provided a screenshot. I don't have any mouseover text applied to any node. I just have them either named with no icon or just an icon. as seen in the image I have my mouse over the system node which highlights it blue as it does the other nodes. Hope this helps sorry for my lackluster attempt at describing the problem lol

[mouser]

ahhhhh.. now i understand!!
it's not a mouseover issue.. it's the color of the currently selected menu item..

ok so here is something to try: try changing the THEME Appearance Skin in the root Options node (Program Options 2 tab) -- see if that has any effect on this color.

[Dochappy]

That changes the color of the selected menu item and the dock as well

[mouser]

How are you getting a black dock? what combination of settings gives you that?

[Dochappy]

If I set Appearance Skin to default and then set Background Display of my dock to colored and clBlack. If I change the Appearance skin it also changes the color the Background Display

[mouser]

Got it, ok I understand now.  Let me look into where the color settings are set for these things.. I'm guessing its using your system defaults in some way, but I have to see how easy it would be to change.

ok thank you
