Channel input colour

[Hannaman]

Hey guys I'm coloured blind and was just trying to find out if I can change the colour of the font when I input a channel number. as its grey onscreen I sometimes don't notice anything ther when I input a channel sorry if it sounds stupid lol.

doesn't sound stupid at all...
but does require some tech knowledge if you want to change things yourself.
Thanks to recent skin changes, issues like this can easily be fixed by creating a new skin with only the changes you want & all other screens default back to original skin.

Ok what do I need to do this?

It's a pretty new feature so still needs lost of testing...
If you create a new skin with only the screens you want changed, it should use them & default back to default screens for any screens you don't want changed.


/usr/share/enigma2/ Skin Name / add the skin sreen there.

hey mate do you know the name of the font im trying to change the colour of?

here mate unzip this file and ftp the xml into your /etc/enigma2 folder, then restart GUI. it should then be pale RED if you open the file and look 'foregroundColor=' you can change the colour for that screen font there.

the default colours you can use are below, but you also you a custom color by just using '#rrggbb' rr=red value, gg = green value, bb = blue value, so for full bright red you could use.

foregroundColor="#FF0000"


hope this helps.

Andy.
