Hello

On my Windows MLO, some of my task names are mid-grey. These tasks are:

- not Active Tasks

- not Project names

- not Folder names

- not Hidden in To-Do ?

Where is the colour setting to change the format for such tasks?

For now, I have turned off Automatic formatting.

Cheers

J

Hi John
There are 3 places in mlo where you can change formatting:
Tools>themes
Tools>automatic formatting
In task properties.

Maybe some menu names are a little bit different, can't say for sure because I'm on android now.

Hi,

Check Menu-Tools-Options-Apperance-Task Format

or

Menu-Tools-Options-Themes and Formating-Edit

This takes you to a section called MLO Appearance, that contains a just tick list - all of which I have already got ticked.

> Menu-Tools-Options-Themes and Formating-Edit

Ah.... Cunningly hidden! Yes, that's the one.

FWIW, under the "Fonts & Icons" tab (but not under "Task Format"), you can change the format of Tasks by clicking the "..." next to the font name, and you have an albeit rather limited choice of just 16 colours to choose form.
