i see, but your fix is wrong. if you find that some colors should be unified, ok. but its completely wrong to hardcode something to fixed color, since you never know color theme used by others. its kind of joke to fix some inset into black just one mail after my warning that there are users who have black background (like me). pavel > > >> - contact Stefan and reduce the macro colors > > > > i'm almost sure Stefan's gone > > It seems so.
