Enabling High Contrast in Windows 7 Ease of Access control center causes Logos 5.2b Beta 3 resource text to blend with background so virtually disappears:

Many Windows color personalization choices are ignored by Logos 5 and Verbum.

Edit: Resource Panel Background was set to Paper.

Keep Smiling [:)]

    Hi KS4J, I looked into this and I believe I have a solution for you. If you:

    1. Set the Windows theme to a High Contrast theme
    2. Go into Logos' Program Settings
    3. Change "Resource Panel Background" to "Windows Default"

    You will then have the default Windows black background, and your white text is nice and easy to read. I did notice that you have to set it to Windows Default after setting the Theme in Windows, as it seems to check what the default is at the time you set it.

    If you set the Resource Panel Background to Windows Default before changing the theme, you have to select a different option and go back to Windows Default to "reset" it and get the correct color. Again, seems to be triggered based on the selection "changing".

    Let me know if you have any issues with this! [:)]

    Solution worked to change Panel Background for resource text:

    Resource Table of Contents did not change.

    Observation: reading view is practical to use with High Contrast Theme.
