Text colours in fields
« on: October 06, 2016, 08:55:32 PM »
So, I am wondering about fields.  I have several fields, but no matter what color I change that text inside the field to in the "Look" tab, it remains black.  I have tried several fonts, as well as leaving text in the field or leaving it blank and putting in with code (Put 'blahblah' into Field10).  Nothing seems to work.  The paper color, does work, however.

Any advice?

Thanks!

Sorry, thats another bug you have found.

Fortunately there is a work around though - extra work but change the field text colors when the card loads. In the card's script just place something like this:-

Code: [Select]
@ field 1 - color red
FieldTextColor(1,255,0,0)

This bug affects Windows 7 as well, but not OS X.
I am sorry but I do not have time to answer questions by PM or email.
If you post your questions in this forum then it might help others.
