Configuring Fonts and Colors




Changing the aspect ratio of the main dialog requires a restart of the program.
You can change many of the colors and fonts used in fldigi to suit your operating style.  Those shown at the left are the defaults.

You can use the color dialog to set the colors, or if you understand the rgb color system you may directly edit the prefs file associated with the transceiver you are using.  The prefs file is located in the flrig folder.

On linux and OS X this folder is $HOME/.fldigi

On XP, C:\Documents and Settings\<usr>\flrig.files
On Vista / Win7, C:\Users\<usr>\flrig.files

The prefs file for the TT-550 Pegasus would be TT-550.prefs.



This bold look is achieved with the following settings found in the prefs file:

smeter_red:0
smeter_green:180
smeter_blue:0
peak_red:255
peak_green:0
peak_blue:0
fg_sys_red:255
fg_sys_green:210
fg_sys_blue:50
bg_sys_red:0
bg_sys_green:0
bg_sys_blue:0
bg2_sys_red:122
bg2_sys_green:141
bg2_sys_blue:147
slider_red:96
slider_green:100
slider_blue:115
slider_btn_red:209
slider_btn_green:177
slider_btn_blue:75
lighted_btn_red:72

A similar color scheme but using the FLTK "Plastic" look for the controls.
