Dear Fusion Development Team,

 

I am a relatively new user, but learning and enjoying Fusion 360 tremendously. Thank You!

 

Over the last few days I have noticed that the helper "pop ups" that appear while executing a Create or Modify function  i.e. "place first corner" or "place center point..." , are almost unreadable to me due to low contrast....they appear as black text against a dark grey background. I have attempted to work with my Display Settings to make it more manageable, but the underlying issue remains.  When my eyes were younger this may not have been an issue, but it is an issue for me now.

 

I have searched help topics, reviewed any preference menus I could find, and adjusted my Display settings, to little avail...if you are aware of an applicable knob that I may have not have discovered would you please let me know. Otherwise in your next update would you please consider a high contrast pop up option for older users...

 

Thank You again for a wonderful tool!

Alan

I have the same issue. Perhaps many years ago it maybe considered that a ultra slim grey text on a white backgrounnd was cool. It found to be not. It's a torture to read menu items for me and I donn't see the reason why it should be.

If developers like it, they can set it the default but allow high-contrast and/or custom colors (and font size) in the setting. Not everyonne comfortable with the half visible grey on white text.
This is quite unfair on people with slight problems with their eyesight. This is againt the accessibility duties of Autodesk.
Please fix ASAP. I guess it must be ann easy one. Every other software does it.

Thanks
