Dim table

[Duchesse]

I have upgraded an FM6 file to FM7, and I find that everything--field labels and field content--appears dimmed and fuzzy. I thought at first it might have something to do with default accounts and permissions, but I've looked into all that without success. I have full access to do what I want with the data, the layouts, whatever. I have a very hard time reading the data on the screen--even if I set font style to bold everywhere!--and I know my colleagues will be unhappy with this "upgrade" if I unleash it on them. Any suggestions?

You could try changing the font smoothing style in the preferences general tab. I recall that I had a similar problem when I first upgraded to FMP7. Another thing is ensure that you have the latest updater 7.0v3 as I think(?not sure) that made some improvements to font rendering.

Thanks very much for the suggestions. Changing "Font Smoothing Style" to "Darkest" in "General Preferences" did help a little, but installing the update patch (7.0v3) really did the trick. The display is fine now.
