When I highlight an item, the highlight follows Mac's Preference of blue over white. Nice, pretty, and legible. But when I jump to another account and then jump back, the highlight has changed to muddy gray over white. Ugly and hard to read. Can this not be tweaked to keep the legible blue?

Still getting to know this program, but I really like it so far.

David,

When you click on an Account in your Accounts drawer, the highlight switches from the Entry over to the Account name—that's why you then see the dark blue highlighting on the Account name. The highlight will remain on the last item selected so just click the Entry again to re-highlight it. The highlighting on the Account name will then be what's greyed out rather than the Entry.

Thanks, Alan. I appreciate the practical value of indicating which box is current, but it's still ugly and hard to read. Just because my pointer is in one box doesn't mean I'm not looking in the other. Almost any color other than blue would work better in my view if it is contrasty enough with white. Black. Red/Maroon. Green. That said, I realize this might be a problem for users with color-limited vision. Maybe making it hard to read is the only way to work with that kind of limitation.

We can certainly look into incorporating a preference for adjusting that particular coloring functionality. I'll definitely add it to the request list for you.

A preference would be great! And it would make the program even slicker than it already is! Thanks.
