Changing the Appearance of UI

PostThu Aug 13, 2020 3:14 am

Is there a way to change the Background Color, Foreground Color, Text Size, borders around views etc?

I do not see these in the Preferences Menu.

Thanks Sri.

Not in the preferences, but if you're comfortable with some CSS coding, you can hack it. In the program directory, there is a folder named "Skins." In that folder, you'll find a file called "Fusion.fuskin." This file is actually a zip archive. If you change the extension to .zip, you can extract its contents.

There are a pair of files with the .skin extension. "Fusion.skin" is the default—the slightly blue-tinted interface. And Neutral.skin is the one used if you select "Use gray background interface" in the preferences.

You can change the definition of the colors with the first couple hundred lines. I'm not sure how much control you'll have over the rest of the interface from there. I've never gone on a deep dive into it. The most I've done is verify that changes to the skin file do indeed alter the appearance of Fusion.
