Bad text color in inplace rename from Sync dialog (32/64)

MVV · Post by *MVV » 2012-02-25, 09:34 UTC

As I see, inplace rename window in Sync dialog uses same text color that TC panels use, and it looks ugly when user has bright text and dark background color for panel because Sync dialog uses Windows theme colors and not TC panel colors. In my case text in inplace rename window is almost invisible. TC8b21{x32/x64}, Win7ProSP1.

Confirmed. Since Sync ignores other color settings, it should ignore font color too.

You are right, I didn't set these manually yet. I will change it in the next beta.

NOT fixed in beta 22!
In my TCb22x32 sync tool's rename window still uses grey font color.

I didn't change it to black and white, I changed it to COLOR_WINDOW background and COLOR_WINDOWTEXT for the text. Are these your windows color settings?

My TC and Windows colors are following: Screenshot. So, text color in inplace rename is the same as text color in TC panels (just like in previous beta) and not Windows default one (BTW my OS theme colors are visible in edit box on previous screenshot).

So the background color in the rename box is correct, but the text color is wrong?

Yes, text color is wrong.

That's strange, I double checked the Delphi form and it should be OK. I will try to set the color manually.

It is quite easy to reproduce:
1. Start TC with clean INI.
2. Set red text color for panels.
3. Open Sync tool and try to rename any file... Font will be red (w/o selection).

It is fixed in 8.0 beta 23. However I think there is a typo in HISTORY.TXT

06.03.12 Fixed: Wrong text color in inplace rename edit box in multi-rename tool (file list text color instead of system text color) (32/64)

Shouldn't it say Synchronize directories?

Yes, it is fixed in b23, thanks!
