Teststand background black

 

The background of my Teststand became black. Does anyone know how to change it back to white. Thanks.

If this is TS 4.2 (don't checked with earlier versions):

1. Right click the step list and select "Step List Configurations >> Edit Step List Configurations" from the context menu.

2. In the Edit dialog press the "Edit" button. Please make sure that you selected the active configuration (checked "set", name e.g. "Default").

3. In the next dialog, switch to the "Fonts and Colors" tab and change the background color.

But this setting is only for  test code view. not for the results tap view background setting. I checked the setting. there is no problem.

Ok, i have to clearify some things:

Your first screenshot shows the Execution Tab which you obviously modified. The second screenshot shows the settings for the Sequence View Tab, which is of course different.

It seems to me that you changed the Execution Tab to use a table control for display of executed steps. Which programming language did you  use for the UI?

 

There are several ways to "recolor" the step display from the TestStand UI controls, but those changes would effect other things as well (because it would require changes in the color scheme of the OS).....

This does not appear to be a UI control that ships with TestStand. It looks like this is part of a custom UI. Did it only switch to a black background recently? Perhaps you accidentally changed a system setting for the operating system for a system color that the UI is using.
