Default Need Help With Widgets

I have the latest bin installed along with the widget package. I like all the monitors except for the Next Station (F10) and the issue is the dark blue color of the lettering. Is there an easy way to change those colors? Thanks for any help.

Open your MSTS main directory, open the GUI folder, then open the DRIVER AIDS folder, MAKE A BACKUP COPY OF PROGRESS.DAT FILE before opening.

When opening the progress.dat file look for the below section:

Code:
Skip ( ******* THIS STATION ******** )
TrGUI_Region
(
  TrGUI_Region_Name     ( PrStationCurr )
  TrGUI_Region_Parent   ( Progress )
  TrGUI_Region_Area     ( 3 50 137 11 )
  TrGUI_Region_TextArea ( 0 0 137 11 )
  TrGUI_Region_Font     ( 9 55 55 55 )  
  TrGUI_Text_Pos        ( "CENTRE" )
  TrGUI_Region_Cursor    ( arrow_cur )
)
In the line: TrGUI_Region_Font ( 9 55 55 55 ) is where you will make changes. The first value, 9 is the font being used. The next 3 values are the color. Use the RGB method of inserting the color you want.

If the above is not what you meant, go further down to the section titled "NEXT STATION" and make the changes as described above.

I have a similar problem. In my MSTS the background of the save, exit and any popup window (messages during an activity etc) is invisible and it's make the text unreadable. Where can i found in the gui folder the ace file of these windows?

In The GUI folder, open the SHARED folder.

The small popup is:

dlg_s.ace

The large popup is:

dlg_l.ace
