Two questions/concerns regarding PPX7...I cannot find answers in the online Help.
1. Is there a way to make the workspace background darker? It's almost white (sampled the color and it's R240-G240-B240) It makes it EXTREMELY hard to see. Whether working on photos are starting an image with a white background I want my workspace darker, please. Ideally, I am hoping there is a way I can choose???
2. I have checked the box for Automatic View Resize. If I un-dock the tabbed image/window, I assume the window should resize as I zoom in/out. It's not working. I also cannot manually resize the window. The arrow come up if I hover over the window edge, but it will not let me resize the window.

P.S. I love the new X7 Fill properties!!!! Haven't explored them totally, mind you, but so far I like what I see.
Hello pranderson; Would this be what you are looking for?

No, George, that's not it. I'm talking about the workspace background...or the document/work area background in Photo-Paint X7. Maybe I'm not using the right terms. It's the blank gray area that surrounds the image. I want to make it darker. When working with photos (or an image with a white background), it's best to have it a neutral gray or darker. Here's a screen shot for PPX7. I created a new image 800px x 600px with a white background.
I played with the Appearance contrast options under Customization. Changing these has no effect on the work area, only the toolbars and menus. What you see above is High contrast. Too much white!!
Sorry Patti, that was all I found, maybe someone else?
Hi Patti,
I agree with you, it needs to be darker, not happening in x7, I can't find an adjustment either. Perhaps sunglasses<G>
Here it is. Though not too satisfactory results. Just 3 stages.

Edit :
Ooops! the darkest also does not seem to differentiate between the selected and not selected items. Its under Tools > Options > Customization
