I am floored with the changes you made to the Axis GUI,great job!!!!I would really like to change the backround colors and text colors myself.Can you shed some light on how you did it and how.Ive spent some time looking at the axis and and tcl files and Im kinda lost.I do ok with C,but python is new.Thanks

Hey JR,

First, to change the live plotter preview colors in Axis you have to copy the contents of the file:
(this is where the color values are stored)

into the file:

then you have to merge it using:

You may have to create the .Xresources file if it is not there.

Changing the text colors for the rest of the application is a little more in depth. If you have never programmed in TCL, I would suggest looking at effbot.org/tkinterbook/ . I used it a lot.

The majority of the interface code is found in:

Read over that code. I can give you more specifics where to look if you tell me exactly what you want to change.

I should have mentioned that what I suggested above is specifically for changing the Live Plotter Preview colors. If you wish to change the background color for the entire application, this is slightly different. TCL is very much object oriented. There is no C, only Python and TCL.
