OK… besides downloading a different color setup
is there a file to tweak all the bits of the interface.
The reason I ask is that I have an interface bug that I'm trying to work around.
I'm running the latest Apprentice on a mac and when I go to the channel editor I cannont see the animation curve, however I can see something moving over one of the dashed lines when I move a curve handle. It almost appears as if I have a black animation curve over a black background.
I would love to be able to see my curves in the channel editor.

OK.. I started digging through the .hcs files. Primarily looking at the UIPro.hcs file. I couldn't find anything that looked like it defined the background for the channel editor. I saw a bunch of lines for the dopesheet, but that's not what I was looking for.
I'm attaching an image of what my channel editor looks like. This could simply be some lack of knowledge, as I'm new to houdini
And for reference the machine I'm on now is:
mac book pro (purchased summer 2008)
4Gb ram
2.6 GHz intel core2 duo
NVIDIA GeForce 8600M GT (512 MB)

ah… just checked the first link….
now I get the joke
DaJuice-
I'll look at that a bit more diligently. I peeked at it last night, but did not see anything that I though I was looking for. And actually, in any of the other “skins” that I've loooked at, none of them have changed the background color of the channel editor.

OK…
got it all sorted!
minor tweak to the AnimationColors file and then I reset all the interface settings to the defaults in the Edit>color settings>user interface.
I can now see splines and they are colored properly and so far things are working well. Previously, I had downloaded and installed one of the color “mods” (JC's Dark).
Thanks everyone for all the help, patience and suggestions.
