WIP grid colors wrong for new users added now

Post by i86truck »

I've already searched articles and forum posts.... The latest user added has the wrong grid colors. It's my understanding that all users should have the same colors I set up ages ago. That has been the case until the latest user added this month, and any test ones I've added today. I've closed the program and re-opened with that user with no change. I've tried it on 2 different computers. The colors are all wrong. What am I missing? Do I need to restore all users to default and program in colors all over from the start?

Have you tried changing the grid line colors to the ones you want? I tested and the lines do change. I do not know what the default colors are but here is how you can change them for each user....
  • Select the User you wish to change.
    Make sure you are on the Splash screen, not the WIP.
    Go to Configurations> Special Maintenance> Grid Line Colors
    Click on the Line you wish to change
    Click on Change Line Color repeatedly until you have the color you want
    Repeat for any additional changes
    Click OK when done
The color change should be immediate.

BTW, grid colors are not universal across all users. Each user can have their own.
