View Full Version : Hotkey Text Color
Anyone know how to change the hotkey text color - not for user created hotkeys, I'm talking about buttons dragged from the actions bar onto the hotkey bar. I know how to edit the user-created ones, but somehow my "dragged" ones have all (on every char) changed to a black color and are hard to read:

You can kind of hack it by having a page of macro hotkeys with the colours you want, switch to that page then back to your usual pages.

Yeah they changed to completely unreadable black with no option to change when green came out. A very sad day indeed.

1. Open uifiles/default/EQUI_HotButtonWnd.xml
2. Find the line that starts with <Button item = "HB_Button1">
3. Underneath there will be a <TextColor> line, followed by the RGB values. Change the RGB values there to whatever colour you want.

4. Scroll down to <Button item = "HB_Button2">, find the <TextColor> line, and change the RGB values again for the second hotbutton.
5. Repeat for all the hotbuttons all the way down to <Button item = "HB_Button10">.
6. Save file.
7. Then /load default in your client.

If you're playing on Green, then open uifiles\velious\EQUI_HotButtonWnd.xml, edit the RGB values for all hotbuttons as above, save, and /load velious in your client.
