Default OS4 Workbench default screen color
Hi mates!

I've been trying to change OS4 Workbench screen background color from light gray to black so that if I put a wallpaper smaller than the workbench resolution I'm able to center it and the borders around look black instead of light grey, I've been looking into several gui and screen settings but I can't find the right option, I'm starting to wonder if it's even possible.. I just hate this gray color... and I wanna change it.

Any ideas?

Thanks!

Use Prefs/Palette to change the colors of the pens and use Prefs/GUI to specify which pen is to be used for each GUI element.

Bye,
Thomas

@Thomas

Thanks, that did it. I created a new pen and changed the background color to black, then I set the original color to every gui aspect that was using the other color, however there's one I was not able to change: CLI background color... I know I can change it by using escape codes in the shell startup but is there a way to change it from the gui preferences without affecting the workbench screen background color already changed?

thanks,

D.
