Hey all -

Is there a way to set specific colors for UI elements? For example, handle colors and curve colors in the animation editor. Some of the default color combinations are impossible to see -- like blue on black.

The "themes" (dark, light, etc.) don't affect this.

This would really help accessibility -- some eyes just can't see enough contrast for certain combinations. (A high-contrast mode would work, too)

Any way to do this? The worst offenders are blue curves and handles on a black background.

Color schemes can be custom made. It's a bit of a task though.

The Animation Editor could definitely use a bit of an overhaul visually. It's extremely functional, but not the prettiest one out there for sure...

Whew! Yeah, that looks like a lot of work. And it's unclear how you'd specify colors for handles and curves in the animation editor. Thanks for the link, though. Might give it a try.

They really need to update Houdini's accessibility features. The tiny fonts aren't great, either (though those are easier to change). I can't be the only person who's been using Houdini long enough to need some visual assistance...
