selected items color

When I'm in a window such as my computer and when I select one file or a
group the selection is highlighted in a light blue.. in the windows
appearance settings I do not see how to change that color

Re: selected items color

AFAIK, you can't change it.

Hi dwolf,

As far as I know to, you cannot change the color. You can change it from being a translucent blue to just a outline instead though. Be sure to read the warning though.

Show Translucent Selection Rectangle - Enable or Disable

Hope this helps some,
Shawn
