Start menu text colors

Published on June 26, 2008 By Goldwing In Skinning

In SKS6 is there a trick to making the text in the places white and in the programs black. All I get is black for both no matter what I do.

It's working here, Goldwing.

What is showing in the Code Editor tab for Places?

Mine shows:

TileLeft=1
TileRight=1
NormalColour=3
FocusColour=3
Trans=1
PerPixel=1
BackgroundEffect=1
NormalFont=4
FocusFont=5
PressedColour=2
PressedFont=4
DisabledColour=2
DisabledFont=4

My Normal Color is 178, 178, 198 and it shows correctly. I think Mouseover color doesn't work which is why I just have it set to 3; the same as Normal Color.
