Menu Builder Help Please

Hello.

I have a stack with a dark background and used Revs Menu builder to create a help menu but with the dark background colour the Help menu cannot be seen as the font is in black. I tried adjusting the Menu script with:

Set textColor to 255,255,255 but can't get it to work

Can anyone please push me in the right direction?

Many thanks
Bidge

Hi Bidge,

"the textcolor" is the property of any OBJECT!
Since you did not specify one, your scripts does nothing

Something like:
...
set the textcolor of btn "Help" of grp "you menu group here" to 255,255,255
...
should do the trick.

Best

Klaus

Hi Bidge,

Select the group, open its property inspector, go to the colours and patterns pane in the property inspector, and set the foregroundColor to white. If you haven't defined any colours for the buttons in the menu group yet, this should be sufficient.

Best,

Mark

Hehehe.

Oh dear sorry for posting a problem so simple to solve.

I had no Idea the actual menu group was accessible via the property inspector. I was trying to attack it from within the actual menu builder dialogue box using scripts.

Many thanks again Klaus and Mark

Cheers
