Smart Office

We are in the process of upgrading to Infor10 & part of the process has been to install Smart Office. Does anyone know how we can change the screen background colors & the font size?

The screen is so pale that it is hard to see as is.

Thanks

Up in the upper right area, there should be a drop-down menu titled 'Show' where you can access Settings. There should be Smart Office settings, and one of the tabs there says Appearance. Hope that helps!

Oh! And while I am on the topic of Smart Office settings....here is a tip that we figured out during our implementation:
- Go to Lawson Transactions settings, and on the Applications tab there is an option to 'Save history of key field selections'
- Do NOT check this box, and uncheck it if it is currently checked!
- If this setting is checked, it causes much frustration and many extra clicks when trying to enter something like a company or employee number on frequently used forms, because Lawson pre-enters it for you....but NOT in a user-friendly way!

Thanks for your input - I had found that option before, but the colors there only change the Navigator box. There is some slight shading on the wallpaper, but all of them are very light. I was hoping someone would know of another place to look.

Thanks for the other tip, I appreciate all the assistance I can get

Are you sure you are looking at the overall Smart Office settings, and not just the settings for the Navigator box? I have attached a document with screenshots for how to get there.....because they have a lot of options for background colors and themes, including one that is pretty much black ("Slate Grey").

mswift, what version of Smart Office are you using? We are on 10.1.1.0.19 and we have the same options as Connie. There is an Enhancement Request that was submitted to get these options back or modify it so that the contrast can be adjusted.

Well that's interesting! We are only on Smart Office 10.0.5.0.38. Why would they have ever taken away the Themes/Appearance options on later releases?? Good to know though, for being cautious about our next Smart Office upgrade...thanks!

Thank you all for your input. If there is someone else that has the solution, I would appreciate you letting us know.

thanks again
