Can you change the Default Font Color for Notes?

In Notes, the Default font color is a gray color, and my vision isn't the greatest! I would like to change the default setting to black. And when I manually change the font to black, every time I type a Bible verse (after it creates the link) the font goes back to gray and I have to reset it again.

Another question. When I type a Bible verse and put it in parentheses, it won't create the link. I have to put a space after the end. Why is that?

Not seeing this here. I've never known the default font for the text in the note itself to be any color other than black. If you start a new note file does this happen as well? If you set the font color to "Automatic" what color do you see?

This is a quirk of autotagging. It usually happens when you have 2 punctuation marks immediately following a verse number. For example a period and a close parenthesis, or close parenthesis and a comma, etc.

EDIT: Forgot to say, "Welcome to the forums!"

"Automatic" shows up as gray, even though the little color block by it looks like it would be black. Are you sure yours is black? At first I didn't notice it, because it is a dark gray, but when you change it to black, you'll notice the difference.

I went back and looked at some notes, and created a new one. You're right! Never noticed this before. It's especially noticeable when you change a sentence in the middle of a paragraph.

I still don't know of a way to change this behavior.

I do notice that when hovering on a note in the Bible (e.g.) that the pop-up box text looks black. And when one sentence is black and the others left gray, one can't tell the difference. But for reading an extended note, black is better, (MHO). It's odd that dark gray was chosen over black for the default color.
