Annoying default colour for input box text...

Hi Cedric,

When I use TemplateCreatorCK to make a new template, the default colour of the input box text and drop-down selector boxes is #bebebe which makes people think these items are "greyed out" and some people with eyesight problems cannot read the faint text.

Is there a way that I can change the default text colour for input boxes and list boxes so that when I create a new template, this colour is simply black (#000000) ?

This is found at: Buttons and Forms -> Form Fields -> Input Fields Normal State -> Text

Often I forget to change this text colour from the default - it is annoying to have to remember to change every time I create a new template. Is there a master template where these defaults come from when I create a new template?

Thanks

Brian

Hi
yes this comes from the default template, when you create a new template it asks you if you want to apply the default theme, if you say "no" then you will get a totally blank template

Strange. I have never been asked if I want to apply the default template. The only question I get asked is how many modules I would like. I almost always choose the one with the most positions.

I will have another look.

Honestly speaking though, why would anyone want such a light and nearly unreadable text colour against a white background anyway? Wouldn't it be more sensible to make this default colour black? :-)

Warmest regards,

Brian

the color and feeling is different for each one :)
Check after selecting the base model (number of modules), it creates the layout and prompt you
