windows calculator font color

from Stardock Forums

Is there a way to change the font color on the buttons for windows XP calculator? or is it one of those few area that cannot be changed?

my buttons are a vibrant blue ending up similar to the font color of the 1-9 buttons in the calculator causing the numbers to be barely visible.

I googled it last night but found nothing, will try again but thought I'd ask here.

 

thanks

I do believe they are hardcoded. (aka non-skinnable)

thanks,

that's what I thought. I search google for a hour and could find nothing. Oh well. I will keep this in mind for future skins and make buttons that are not so close to calc font color.

One thing you *could* do, is to get hold of reshacker and alter the (color)code in 'calc.exe'. *_* ;)
It's quite do-able.

(Done it a few times with WinAmp myself)

hmmm....I'll give it a shot. I do have a little experience in modding a couple of agmes so that shouldn't be too hard.
