No selection higlight in Vista
« on: May 22, 2007, 02:05:00 pm »

There seems to be no menu selection highlight in Windows Vista 64bit. Makes the game a bit more difficult.

I don't quite understand what you mean by this.  It would be odd if it decided to display some of the OpenGL tile colors and not others, but I guess anything's possible.  Do you have a screenshot?

Other observations of this by Vista users?

Thought I'd bump this since there isnt an answer, and I'm having the same problem. Text isnt highlighted/change colors in the menus. I have to count how many times I go up/down to select the right stuff. Makes things reallly hard.

Did you have a screenshot?

I assume there are some Vista people that don't have this problem?

Right now, I don't have any ideas.  The color for text selection is handled like any other color in the game.

Its only screens with white text, like that and the set up in the beginning. Everything works on my xp computers, but my desktop with vista, I get this.

Copper is highlighted in the picture.  I don't understand the error.  Does it highlight but the highlighting doesn't move?

In that second screen, the second game is very clearly highlighted in bright white to me.  Does it not display that way for you?  Does this have more to do with monitor settings or something?
