Styles and Ansi Color issue
 
Well i just got ver 7.01, and was excited to try out the styles feature. I switched windows to the Silver style and went into zmud. I immediately found that Bright White was now black and some other colors were completely whacked out.

I'm not sure how to change the style so that it doesn't affect the Ansi Color inside the output window.

Would it be possible to have Zmud get a toggle for not allowing styles to affect Ansi Colors?

Remember that Windows XP styles actually change the entire palette of colors on your computer. If you change styles while you have various windows open, you'll actually see it slowing changing the palette of your system. So after changing themes, you might need to go into your Foreground and Background color preferences and reset your ANSI colors to the values you want.

There is nothing zMUD can do to help with this. It's just the way Themes work in XP.

I didn't think it did this in 6.62, maybe I had never changed my theme before.

Previous versions didn't have any theme support, so they would have been "immune". In general, you should close applications before changing themes. If you close zMUD, change the theme, then open zMUD, then it should work fine.
