How to change the colour of a disappearing ok/close in a dialog? - General Questions and Answers

Since I changed some colours with UI Tweaker, the ok/close in dialog boxes disappeared. Probably because the ok/close is black on a black background. Maybe it was changed when I selected Black Bars for taskbar and softkeys. After a soft reset, it is visible a few times and then it always disappears again. This never happens with the ok/close in the top task bar, only in windows like in the attached image.
Please see the attached screen capture where there should be an ok/close button on the top right of the dialog to close QuickClear (red arrow).
After a long search on the forum and Google, I didn't find any solution yet.
I am using a Mio A201 with WM 5.
Could you please help with:
- the location and name I have to search for in UI Tweaker to change this colour?
- the registry key to change it?
- the change to make in the theme or elsewhere?
Thanks for your help.

THe quick way to do this is to change the theme on settings/today.
This should then make the ok visible. The UI tweek settings only apply to the theme that you were using it on when you changed the settings.... thats how i got round it anyway when i got carried away and turned all text black on black backgrounds

Changing the theme was not enough, I also had to delete the registry entries under
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Today\"name of theme".tsk
and then reload the theme, then it was ok.
Thanks very much for your help.

HELP: Bluetooth Icon moves and is gone.

Anybody know how to resolve this:
The Bluetooth Icon located on the TitleBar next to the 3G or H icon, when bluetooth is turned on, disappeares after having modified some settings in Advanced Configuration Tools 3.1 by Schap's.
It actually moves to the upperleft corner of the popup balloon when tapping the 3G or H icon and is colored blue as well.
Any change of this blue colored icon can be placed next to the 3G icon, instead of in the connections-bubble?
Or even to let me have my bluetooth (black and white) icon back where it originally should be situated, next to the 3G / H icon?
Anybody know which settings in Adv. Config Tools perform this operation, or know a workaround in the registry?

PICS
I have found the thing that makes the bleutooth icon go from the statusbar or titlebar to be gone or to the connectivity bubble:
It has something to do with switching the phone skin on/off.
Phone skin is enabled/disabled with Advanced Config Tools 3.1 by Schap's by going to Phone section, on top you see, Phone skin: disabled (default) and enabled (advised).
I like the disabled (default) better than the advised one, i think the keybuttons look way fancier.
Now the white buttons on the enabled (advised) one are not bad, but the thing is when this one is selected, you don't have any bubbles anymore when clicking on some of the icons above in the titlebar, now first you get a systemstatus screen, with the icons as buttons. Once you click an icon, you go back and the bubble of that paticular icon is displayed.
Plus there's no or just one almost 'hard to see' scrollbar next to the SIM contacts.
I'll stick with the original (enabled/advised) one, because off videocall mode option, bluetooth icon on titlebar and relative good buttons, but it's too bad the scrollbar isn't shown properly.
If someone knows how to edit this skin to make it all work, please do so.
The location for the changing the skin is HKLM\Security\Phone\Skin
in HKLM\Security\Phone\Skin set Enabled to 1 for original
set Enabled to 0 to get the black button skin.
There's also a string or D-Word there which contains a .DLL file information, perhaps this is the DLL that contains the skin so somebody can modify this file. Look for it in that regfolder HKLM\Security\Phone\Skin.
Attached some pics to give you an idea what i'm talking about.

Pop Up Menus

Hello All
I've recently installed something or other on my HD2/Leo/T8585 which has caused some colour changes on my pop up menus, It's generally fine but on all these pop up menus the first option choice is not visible, It's the same colour as the background
Any help from anyone of you top geezers!
Thanks
Try going into Manilla settings, then bottom right menu and 'All settings' and then select 'Today', and have a look which winmo theme you have running, it should be on HTC black, maybe you changed it somehow?

Touch X Transparent Slider Issue

I have an problem with the touch x transparent slider cab. When I install it, the bottom sense bar is transparent but I cannot see the icon where the selection box is. I can see all the icons on the bottom fine but I cannot see the icon where the slider/selection box is. For an example, If you slide all the way to the left on to the home screen and release your finger, I cannot see the home icon in the little square slector box. It seems to cover up the icon that it is over. I hope you guys can understand what I'm talking about. Can anyone post a fix cab for this? Thank you for your help and patience!
can anyone help me with this please

Maybe I'm misunderstanding your problem, but I think what you are explaining is actually what the cab does. It makes the 'slider' (i.e. the little frame around the 'slider icons') transparent, so you cannot see it.
If you do not like this and are just asking how to get it back to the way it was before, you just need to remove the cab i.e. go into Settings, select 'Application', then 'Remove Programs', then highlight 'touch x transparent slider cab' in the list and finally, click on 'Remove'. You will probably also need to perform a 'soft reset' after that, to get rid of the change completely...
If this is not what you meant, then please consider posting a screenshot of the problem and adding it to the description on this thread.
im still not understanding your problem completely, can u clarify it for me?
His problem is that He don't see the icon on his slider selection because of the fact he don't used a transparent slider selector on a slider who have in his M9 mode the Icon you see on the slider turns off!!
But he used different combination's! so it is quit difficult to solved it!
I thin'k it will be more simpler that he make a choice on what he will and modified the m9 values of the manila file in function of his depends!
If not, it will not be easy fore anyone to make a fix cab! The last week I give him a solution, but it seem's he changed already to a other slider. the problem of the m9 file is that there are also other data of other stuff he used!
thank you for clarifying that Kurt. I guess I will just have to do with out the touch x transparent slider cab.

[Q] [HELPNEEDED] Notification text...

Hey, so the notification text colour in the 'drawer' is black, on a dark grey background which makes it almost impossible to read for mst things (downloads etc)
Is there any way to change this? I'd like to change the colour to white or somethng
Thanks in advance!
U can play with UOT kitchen, but several things seem not to work for our stock rom (window animation/lock screens/notification power buttons) It's easy and doesn't harm to try though.
go to uot.dakra.lt/
Thanks for the link, I tried out just changing the notification drawer, but although most of the edit worked, I lost the drawer transparency :/
More experimentation required! (I'll post back here if I have success)

[Q] ui element changes-

I have the option to change ui element colors and transparency such as the stauts bar on PA primou. But when I make any changes it does nothing...
Any ideas?
Thanks.
... well actually "nothing" is not accurate- it shows the change such as from white to red in the little box on the menu, but the change does not actually take effect.
do these type of changes only stick after a reboot? or is does it have to do with some sort of locked theme preference?
