How to change Background Text color in WB Options using scripting?

Rohith Patchigolla

Is it possible to modify the text color (under WB --> Tools --> Options --> Appearance) using scripting?

Rohith Patchigolla

One can use SetPreferenceValue() to change the text colour. One can paste the below scripts in WB Scripting console.

To change the colour to white:
SetPreferenceValue('GraphicsTextColor','0 0 0 0')

To change it back to black:
SetPreferenceValue('GraphicsTextColor','255 255 255 255')
