[WriteLog] Change per-band colors in Multiplier window?

[Randy Thompson]

I too struggled with the default color choice for the WriteLog mult window.  I am now using the following and they work great.

Edit the writelog.ini file.
Look for the [Multipliers] section.
In that section, add the following lines:

BandColor01=0x0076ce "Blue"
BandColor02=0x7c4400 "Midnight"
BandColor03=0xe6b641 "Light Blue"
BandColor04=0x1164ee "Orange"
BandColor05=0x5a29b7 "Berry"
BandColor06=0x04a26e "Green"

Save.
Enjoy!

Randy

I would love to be able to swap out the yellow color for mults on 20 meters in the 'Multipliers Status' graphic as well. I have always had a very hard time seeing the yellow, especially when it is next to a white (no multiplier) box.  Orange would be a great color.
In the Help file dealing with Writelog.ini, there is this:

"The multiplier display window uses the following colors for bands. If there are more than 17 bands, it cycles back to BandColor01 for color number 18, BandColor02 for 19, etc.BandColor01=0x00bbggrrBandColor02=0x00bbggrr"
But in my own .ini file, I don't see anything like that.

Is there a way to change the per-band colors in the Multiplier window, i.e. CQ Zones?  I find that yellow (15m?) is too hard to read in a well-lit room.  I'd prefer something a little darker like orange.  I looked over the weekend but could not figure out how to change them.
