A quick query to other users.
I've just installed Organizer 2.20 and am very pleased with it but
I have one (silly?) problem.
In my new Organizer the colours of the side tabs (calendar, diary,
anniversary etc) have changed, in some cases to make the black
text unreadable against the dark tab colour.
I can find options for changing the folder colours and the clock
colours in choices.colours but nothing for changing tab colours.
Any hints, anyone?

If 256 there is a bug: write to Tech Suppoort for a fix.

In General Choices, in the Sections setting at the bottom, you can move
the Tabs up and down (or exclude them) and change the Tab colours.
But this will not work in 256 colours without a fix...

What screen setting do you have for the number of colours?

Yes - there are what are probably colour menus but they are greyed
out and inoperative. I'll try support - but might venture into
trying a new screen mode first.

Have you tried using Organizer NOT in Filofax look mode? ie In Organizer
choices.General untick "Use classic 'Filofax' look with tabs & rings." You
then get a nice toolbar with all the sections available. You can have the
toolbar horizontal or vertical. I always use it that way as I find it quicker
& therefore more productive. It's not affected by screen mode as far as I'm
aware.
Cheers,
