Command menu in a repeating table

D

Deb

There is a drop-down arrow in the upper left-corner of any section in a
repeating table. Yet, regardless of the color scheme used for the InfoPath
form, the resulting command menu is unreadable. They all have a pale yellow
background with white, maybe light gray, text. Impossible to read! Does
anyone know where this might be changed? I've looked everywhere and am
beginning to think that it is an InfoPath flaw/bug.

Thanks!

I don't see any problem. The menu appears with a light gray background and
black text. Hover color is an orange background. This is on a Vista machine.

Perhaps it is related to your Windows color scheme? Are you using the
default XP/Vista theme or have you altered it?

This is problem on both Vista and XP. Whether I've altered it or not, I
can't control what my users will do with their color schemes. An InfoPath
form will be used by such a wide variety of people!

There could be several factors: the specific monitor or monitor settings is
another potential issue.

However, if the problem indeed stems from altered Windows theming, that is a
user choice, the consequence of which will be entirely user-related. If the
user altered their theme and doesn't like the end results, they should find
a more usable theme.

The default themes have never caused myself any grief in this regards. Since
this is a subjective issue it is very difficult to diagnose. It might be
useful if you could provide a screen capture of the offending menu for us to
view.

Thanks.
