RDC reconnect messes up XY colors

Post by JLoftus »

When I reconnect a Remote Desktop session to a machine running XY, the colors for XY are all messed up. I have to close XY and restart it to fix, see screenshot below. The top of the attached screenshot shows what happens to the colors, the bottom half after I restart XY. I have a dark background, and many of the colors become impossible to see upon reconnecting to the session, but, this appears to only happen with XY, not with any other programs. Any ideas?

Additional info: Realized it looks like it's just the background colors for list and tree that are really lost (inverted?) on reconnecting.

I tried going into XY configuration and just setting the same list background color (000000) and and tree background color (000000) and despite not being changed from the original specification, that does fix the colors.

So, it seems it's just these two background colors that are being lost/modified on reconnect... Can anyone else confirm this? Don, any ideas?

No ideas ATM. I'll change my own colors (not as extreme as yours, of course :mrgreen: ) and watch it.

BTW same result when doing a "switch user" (dark background reverts to white)

Confirmed. Unfortunately this is not solvable without an enormous effort. Interesting problem.
