Another gauge mystery...colors for text

Postby CAFedm » Tue Apr 24, 2007 1:45 am

I want to change color for some text used in a default-gauge PFD. Here are some examples of the way the colors are listed in the .xml doc:

Color="#1296A5"
Color="#FF00FF"

These two colors need to be changed to bright green. Have checked out the FS2004 SDK (it is an FS9 gauge) but haven't been able to uncover anything to explain this. Any leads are welcome.

Color="#1296A5"
Color="#FF00FF"

That is the hexadecimal*

At that time [1909] the chief engineer was almost always the chief test pilot as well. That had the fortunate result of eliminating poor engineering early in aviation.

I never knew that!! Your're absolutely correct about the colors used for text editing here, that's a neat trick. Many thanks for the help!
