2 weeks ago Me again, I changed the color manually in the user.cfg file and it "took"--the displayed color on the Navigation preferences dialog changed also, however it siill cannot be set via the configuration dialog...
Also why are the color values stored as decimal values--it hey were stored in hexadecimal one could just look at the value and get a sense of the color,
Ex: The original value if the rotation center indicator was:
FCUInt Name="RotationCenterColor" Value="4278190131"/
4278190131 = #FF000033 = deep red ("FF") @ 51/255 % ("33") luminance (it's obvious in the Hex value)
After dancing about with a color picker and a calculator I changed it to:
FCUInt Name="RotationCenterColor" Value="2852126975"/
2852126975 = #AA0000FF = not as deep a red ("AA"), but @ 255/255 % ("FF") luminance;
"2852126975" means nothing!!!
Saving the color vales in decimal is kind of amateurish....
!!! FIXED !!! I just downloaded b 39153 --ail fixed up! Thank you all !
NOT even close to a big deal; I have been hesitant to post about it.
I have found that the "Rotation Center" indicator color and transparency cannot be set or saved via the Edit|Preferences|Display|Navigation dialog. Clicking the "sample" box opens a color selection dialog (color only, no transparency)--however selecting a new color does nothing, the color of neither the sample or the working indicator is changed..
AFAIK it has not worked since introduced--currently I am running b39100(git) on Linux Mint v22/Mate.
