The color of the font in the selected entry is made by XORing the background of the selected entry (called CWM_COLOR_FG_MENU in the source) with the background of the unselected entries (called CWM_COLOR_BG_MENU) and then XORing the result with the color of the font in the unselected entries. See menu_init() in menu.c for details. An additional option to choose the color of the font in the selected entry has also been one of the suggestions made by Thomas Pfaff. This seems to require a bit more work, unfortunately. Maybe I'll take a look at it later or someone else will step in.

Turning off hinting makes it even worse. Turning off antialiasing does help, but that cure is actually worse then the disease. -- Simon Nicolussi, <simon.nicolu...@student.uibk.ac.at> http://homepage.uibk.ac.at/~csag9583/
