I need dark text on all MW rows

Mon May 25, 2020 8:49 pm

For years I've found that for "good mail" the use of white text in every second row has been a bit hard to read.

In the screenshot attached I find it extremely hard to read the bottom row (poor contrast of white text on dark green background)).

Now that I'm getting on in years (a.k.a. one foot in the grave) I'm finding it even even harder for my old peepers to easily discern the white text than when I started using MW a decade or more ago.

Is there a way to specify dark text for every row. In the screenshot I'd be perfectly happy to see black text on each and every row. I haven't found an option for this, would you please add one?
-- Cheers, Tony

Hi Tony

There isn't any way to do that at present.

In the interim from the main MailWasher screen under Display Options.

There's a zoom for the font size under the 'A' icon.
You can also alter the background colours, a darker green might give more contrast. Though changing this setting does not take immediate effect, instead you need to clear the list and recheck (C then Y on keyboard)
Lastly the brightness slider also could be used, though by default I believe it is set to maximum.

Thanks for the reply, but over the years I've tried adjusting all of these. to little avail.

Actually, it's only the currently-selected row that has the white text, so I guess I'm nitpicking (maybe a sign of COVD-19 lock down getting to me?). Not a big issue, nevertheless, I'd still prefer to have dark text on every row.
