I used to use Gnome, now I use Mate, but they both had (and Mate still does), options to set your display *look* preferences (Mate has it in the accessibility / universal access settings. Where you get a few choices for low, normal, high contrast, and high contrast & inverse. Gnome used to do it with Themes. The idea is that it sets the basic desktop colour scheme for most things (windows, menus, text foreground and backgrounds), and some desktops let you set them with RGB sliders rather than just give you some presets. However, you do come a cropper with some applications that either don't use the desktop colours in a logical fashion, or their display section takes their colours from the source of what they're displaying (such as anything that shows HTML). Likewise, it's confusing if you're word processing and including graphics. The printer is most likely to print the text black on a white page, because you're *displaying* it in inverse, not painting it in those colours. And judging how a graphic fits into that scheme is difficult, too. -- [tim@localhost ~]$ uname -rsvp Linux 3.9.10-100.fc17.x86_64 #1 SMP Sun Jul 14 01:31:27 UTC 2013 x86_64 Boilerplate: All mail to my mailbox is automatically deleted, there is no point trying to privately email me, I only get to see the messages posted to the mailing list.
