Mysterious occurrence in X

[garyg]

When I opened X this morning the operations manager background window had changed colors. It is now #9, blue. I have no idea what has happened nor do I see a way via Settings/Config/colors to change it back to white. Kinda spooky. Any ideas?

Don't know if it uses it or not but have you checked to see if your color#15 has been edited?

Did you do anything with the x+ Tool (setup sheet and more) from the forum? I think I saw where that changes the background color of the OP manager

I ran into a color issue on a few files now. I opened a file that I was working on the previous day and a message said that I had XXX entities the same as the background color. I don't know where it came up with that from because I didn't. I changed the color and continued working without problems. This has happened on 3 different occasions.

Yes I was tinkering with it yesterday. Do you know how to repair? With the color blue its kinda hard to read.

I don't know how to change it back. I didn't do anything with it, maybe read the thread, I think it was covered in there somewhere.

go to customize toolbars and activate x+. from that toolbar you can change it to anything you want.

Thanks beej. Didn't know that was there. Cool.

I've had the same thing happen Thad. I picked a color not used by any other entites to try and find what was the same color as the background and it turned out to be an arbitrary point. Don't know how it got there though.

Laszlok,

 

Just today, I opened a file that had over 5,000 entities the same as the background color....so it thought.

They're referring to this new tool that Andreas posted.
