View Full Version : Graphics Frames Question

I am toying with a modification of the Core-Dark theme for Mongoose Traveller. There are many custom frames used in various book conversion that have fairly light backgrounds. In the dark theme I understand how to make the overall text a specific color for things like Body, Heading, etc. Is there a way to change the font color for specific frames so that for a light frame the font color would be darker just when specific frames are used?
BTW...wouldn't it be easier if we could just pick the font colors we want on the fly when building modules? Isn't it just html wrapped in XML tags? IDK...Maybe that's too much to ask.

While that would be amazing for theming, not at this point.

Thanks.
At this point then, it might be easier to redo some of those lighter frames by darkening them to work better with a lighter font color.

That was my solution.

It would probably be best to minimize the number of custom frames used in the ruleset as well to match up with existing frame templates defined in Core and standard themes.
The original developer got a little zealous with adding new frames; but it made it basically unable to be themed easily.

Nothing worth doing is easy. Adding more work for myself is my MO..
