Hi,
I have been using Eagle for about 10 years, and always disliked the
"Default GREEN" font colour, for added TEXT messages.
My current version is Eagle 4.16, but this has always been a nuisance since
using my very first version.
Recently, I had to reinstall Eagle, keeping my original user project
folders and files, and after reactivating it with my license, I created a
brand new project. The strange thing I discovered was that all TEXT I
created was BLACK, and even printed that way on my colour LaserJet.
Everything was fine - BLACK TEXT - until about the time I finally
created the BRD for the SCH. Suddenly, all the text switched to GREEN, and I
have not found any way to select the TEXT font colour. I even tried to
create another schematic (without a BRD), to see if I could recreate this
switch, but it seems that Eagle is now permanently set to create only green
font for this command.
I wonder if there is some undocumented "switch" for TEXT colour in the
"freshly installed" Eagle software, that switches to GREEN TEXT, as soon as
you create your first BRD layout? After that, it can't be changed.
I would appreciate any information about this.
Joe
