texar Posted April 28, 2014 Report Share Posted April 28, 2014 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 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jerry Medved Posted April 28, 2014 Report Share Posted April 28, 2014 That is definitely a Windows thing - no idea if it can be turned off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

texar Posted April 28, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 28, 2014 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
