Pale colors on diagrams
« on: February 19, 2021, 08:02:33 pm »
I've just gone back into a diagram created in 2015, so that would be EA 12? 13?
I notice that the colors on diagrams have changed: not the individual elements, but in 15.2 they all look very pale.
When did this happen?
And more important, what can I do to go back to the same bold coloring ? I need to refresh some documents, and I don't want some to have bold colors and some pale.
I've found the option at Start / Desktop / Visual Style, and the option for 'Visual Appearance' Diagram of diagrams of "Enterprise Architect 14' is an improvement, but the colors still look paler then they used to look. Which makes the diagrams harder to read in a document.
Ideas anyone ?

I guess you could create your own visual style that have darker colours
Happy to help

What I would try is to use Preferences->Diagrams->Themes

You can set the colour theme on all diagrams to old versions of EA right back to Version 10
