ok there's a really great theme that i want to slightly edit, it's a .msstyles theme, what program could i use to edit it, so i can change the text selection color? problem is it's a minimalistic theme and the author made the selection color nearly transparent and it's too hard too see. i just want to add a bit of color so it's easier to use. can anyone give me some tips?
thanks,
karsten
display properties -> appearance -> advanced -> selected items
the simplest way would be to do it that way theMAN suggests. however i can understand if you wouldn't want to do that ever single time you apply the theme (i myself change themes often).
to perminantly change the selection color you can use ResEdit (free app). Load up the .msstyle file, and go to the text file tree on the left. find the one for the font that you want to use (or if you're anal like me change all of them lol). then go to edit. do a find for "highlight". that is the color that you change.
i suggest that you do a find and replace for that rgb color, so it will match throughout the theme.
hit "save" (NOT save as) the text file, close it. then save the .msstyle file in ResEdit. good luck
