Switching off highlighting border of active window

Recommended Posts

Hi Jerry,

 

This is probably more a Windows 8 / MS Office than an MT problem, but I can't find a solution.

I am running Windows 8.1.

 

In MT when I click on a window in MT (say a watchlist) the border of that windows changes color (highlighting the window).

 

This is not necessary and can be a distraction  when rapidly clicking through a number of MT windows.

 

Is there any way to switch this effect off?

 

I can't find a switch off command in Windows 8 though there may be such a command in Windows 7.

 

 

Thanks

I haven't gound a way of turning off the highlighting but I managed to change the border to a color that matches my MT color schene fairly well. That way the highlighting is no longer very noticeable.

 

In Windows 8 go to Control Panel

Select "Appearance and Personalisation"

Select "Change the colour of your taskbar and window borders"

Chose a color and in a second step adjust the intensity. There's also a color mixer if you want.
