Toggle Label Gradient Off?

Post by Nighted »

Hi,

Does anyone know if there is a way to toggle the gradient that is displayed with the colour labels?

I think I would prefer a flat label as it would be easier on my eyes. 8)

You are metro-ized. :)

No, currently this is hard-coded. IMO it's a very subtle gradient, hardly noticable...

Hmmm...metro is an abomination as computers get smarter and users get...

I use white text on a dark background. I use white text for the labels also and on light coloured labels the gradient really is hard on the eyes after a while.

I'll have to tweak these a bit but I'm limited because with the gradient it's hard to get some of the colours to look normal.

FYI, the gradient is also there to make it look different from Color Filters.

I'm sorry. What's "metro-ized"?
Google fails to locate the meaning of "metro-ized" in the known galaxy and civilization.
I took Metro in Montreal. But it bears no meaning to "metro-ized".
Please enlighten me. Schönen Dank.
