ISY Admin text colors for color blind people

Recommended Posts

Would it be possible to add a color scheme picker to the Admin Console that gives us color blind people a break? 

Magenta or whatever color that is on Blue is just about invisible to me.  Imagine me squinching my eyes and looking at my monitor from about a foot away to see it.  This is a problem since I have around 70 devices and >100 scenes. 

All the rest of the Admin console is fine - just the Main|Network list.  I circled the problem areas in the attached screen shot that I have difficulty seeing.  I love the blue background - I have no problem with that.

Thanks in advance!

It's been suggested before, there's a thread somewhere.  There was a response that it wouldn't be changed until we got rid of the java based admin console. 

I find the magenta hard to read also, but discovered that it's not as hard with a larger font which can be set at File > Themes

Thats already possible. Its in the wiki. FIle>themes

Unfortunately the magenta font color for Insteon devices exists in every one of the choices.  For me at least its actually easiest to read on the blue (dark) background.  Even the theme "high contrast" I find it hard to read the magenta.  Since it's a "light" color it works best on "dark" backgrounds.

High Contrast kinda-sorta works. (Thanks lilyoyo1)  It is somewhat easier to read but the rest of the screens are butt-ugly :-)

That Magenta text has got to go.  A larger font size would be problematic since I have hundreds of items in that list - 4 page-down scrolls with all of my scenes collapsed - and on a high res monitor.
