QB45/QBasic "Default" Color Scheme #27

Open DualBrain opened 2 years ago

DualBrain commented 2 years ago

QB64 provides a means to change colors - but the default colors certainly don't look anything like QB45/QBasic. Can someone please determine what these colors need to be to make QB64 look more like QB45/QBasic?

I went through and captured some colours, which I then posted to the Discord chat. I'll include what colours I managed to work out here too:

[IDE COLOR SCHEMES]

Instructions2="Custom color schemes will be stored in this section."

I can't guarantee these are absolutely correct, but they're about as close as I can get from within my virtual machine. I hope this helps, at least somewhat. I did notice (like you) that there's no way to change the colour of the status bar, as it's a little duller shade of cyan than we appear to have.
