    I've just moved to 2006 (many good new features/improvements), but one
    change that I'd add to the unofficial "de-enhancements" list is the colour
    of the text in the Feature Manager tree for inactive configs or suppressed
    components.

    Previously, the icon used to be grey, but now the text is as well, and I
    find it almost impossible to read against the relatively light screen
    background.

    Can the text be made black (as before) but keep the icons grey?
    I see there is an option in system options/colours for inactive items, but
    when I changed it to a darker colour, nothing seemed to have changed
    on-screen.
    Does anyone know what this parameter affects?

    Regards,
    John H

    Well you can change the color of your feature manager so that the text
    shows up better. Go to tools -> system options -> colors -> Current
    Color Scheme Area -> white or something. Uncheck "Match graphics area
    and feature manager backgrouns." That shoul do it =D.
