See attached screen shot. I am trying to change the font color - and the box colors - for the onscreen text boxes showing the trade fills. I thought it was in Graphic Settings - Global and under fonts>chart order fills. However, I changed the font from BLACK to WHITE and saved it but it just immediately goes back to black font so that's not working. I'm not even sure if it's the correct setting to use. Also, have no idea which setting controls the box color (purple, green, maroon, etc). Not sure why the default is black text on dark background - seems WHITE should be the default, but I'd just like to change the font color and box color to something that is visible. Thank you. |

No image attached. Please attach the image so we know for sure what items you are referring to. The colors are NOT set in the Fonts. The colors are all set in the "Colors and Widths" tab of the Graphics Settings. For the Order Fills, this starts at the entry for "Chart Trading Order Fills - Buy Entry". Refer to the following and the items below it relating to order fills: Customizing Fonts, Colors, Line Styles, and Widths for Chart Trading, Chart DOM, and Trade DOM: Chart Trading Order Fill Buy Entry For the most reliable, advanced, and zero cost futures order routing, use the Teton service: Sierra Chart Teton Futures Order Routing |

Here is the screenshot that was supposed to be attached. I was able to change the font color and fills per your instructions. I would like to change the color of the font that is in the box that displays the current position size, trade entry price, and P/L. I am not sure what that is called in the long list of graphics settings. Could you tell me which setting controls that? Thank you. https://www.sierrachart.com/image.php?Image=172472297672.png Date Time Of Last Edit: 2024-08-27 01:51:34

The text color for the Order/Position lines is controlled by the graphics setting for "Chart Trading Order Line Text Color".
