Open formatting-settings.txt and change this so it will look like:
Sorry if incorrect, I do not have it here, and may have forgotten the correct settings, since I don't use BCDC++.
Code: Select all
background_is_dark=1

I tried to change it, but nothing happened. I restarted DC and nothing... The background is BLACK, that is OK, that was black before too, but the text is black too, and I dont see anything on main chat in DC. I tried to rewrite text color in that .txt file, but nothing...

txt
So, here is that txt file content:
formatting_opt = {
flash_on_myname = 0,
seconds_in_timestamp = 1,
bold = 1,
also_match_nicks = {
},
background_is_dark = 1,
color = {
self = "red",
nick = "darkred",
myname = "darkgreen",
link = "blue",
partner = "darkmagenta",
op = "blue",
time = "darkgray",
noise = "darkgray",
normal = "white",
},
}
Apropo, the users file list and the private post in my BCDC are white text on black background, but the text in main chat is black on black! I can see only the nicks with magenta color but the text after nick isnt seen...

Can you put the original formatting.lua and formatting_settings.txt files into the folder (from the BCDC++ package) replacing these, and changing only the background_is_dark value? You don't need to restart BCDC++, you only have to write this into mainchat:
This formatting_settings.txt worked fine when I set a black background:
Code: Select all
/luafile scripts/startup.lua
Code: Select all
formatting_opt = {
flash_on_myname = 0,
seconds_in_timestamp = 1,
bold = 1,
also_match_nicks = {
},
background_is_dark = 1,
color = {
self = "red",
nick = "darkred",
myname = "darkgreen",
link = "blue",
partner = "darkmagenta",
op = "blue",
time = "darkgray",
noise = "darkgray",
normal = "black",
},
}
