Changing grid colors

[Dinosaur]

I just purchased Web Designer 6 and have a problem. My eyesight is not good and I have a problem with the gay color and the blue grid, I can hardly see the grid on the gray pane. Is there any way to change the grid color?
Thanks for your help

Hi,
There is a small program written by soquilla that can change the grid color it is XaraReg on the Gary Priester shareware page. It is an Excellent Program.
It lets you adjust quite a few things in Xara products.

Hi Dinosaur,

Unfortunately there is no way to change the colour of the grid. It is hard coded into the program as far as I know.

Web Designer 6 and Designer Pro 6 have a default colour scheme that is different from all previous version of Xara's software.

There is an undocumented key combination that will revert to the older (and in my opinion superior) colour scheme. Hold down the Ctrl-Alt-Shift keys and then hit the S key. This toggles between the newer and original colour schemes and also resets any custom control bar configuration you may have set up to the default control bars.

See examples of the two with the grid active in the attached images.

Thank so much, I can see clearly now!
