    Question Where to change these bg color and text color in WSB? (help color/properties locatio)

    I've read Dave Senior's "Complete Guide Theme Building" for Win7 and did a bunch of personal modification of Win7 theme for personal usage. But long time I didn't touch this task, so now comeback even I purposely search for some propertise and color but I still can't figure it out. I know it is still there but I read and compare page by page from the guide document without success.


    Many other typical, frequently used windows look alright (explorer myComputer, Control Panel, Libraries, run Dialog, etc...). So it's really anoying to see some remaining stuff out of place. I'm fully aware of that some text color is hardcoded and I'm compeletely ok with that, just these text/base color above I mentioned is changable (I saw in other theme a lot of time but now I just couldn't figure it out or search it out)


    Thanks a lot for reading and helping. Have a nice day.

    For the Task Manager go to Buttons, Boxes, & Controls > Boxes > Edit > Basic > Background > FillColor

    On the Start menu properties the check box text color is Buttons, Boxes, & Controls > Buttons > Button > CheckBox > Textcolor

    The other Customize Start Menu box "Start Menu size" text is Buttons, Boxes, & Controls > Buttons > Button > GroupBox > Textcolor

    Yes, it means this. Hardcoded = not possible to change.
