is there anyway to change the color or opacity of the white slashes that separate stats in a horizontal panel on the hud?

I use a mid to low opacity for my hud and when i just changed to the new 1.07 version from 1.06.03 these slashes seem a lot brighter than before (in fact i don't even remember there being slashes there but i guess there was) and it's driving me nuts. I have a ton of stats on my screen and i can't focus on anything other than the slashes, lol, and i 24 table so it's slowing me down too much to where it's unplayable in terms of me being able to focus on the stats and react in less than a second...

if there isn't a way to change this is there a way i can uninstall the 1.07 verson and go back to the 1.06.03 version ?

actually i just figured out the difference b/w the 1.06.03 and the 1.07 version regarding my question...

the slash seperator in the 1.06.03 version takes on the same color as the stat before it. while in the 1.07 version my slashes are always white.

is there a way i can go back to 1.06.03 version style and have the slashes the color of the preceding stat? I have played about 1.5 million hands w/ it this way and prefer it that way big time... thanks!

I think alot of people asked to have this changed as it was hard to deferentiate when 2 stats together were the same color IIRC. You can change the seperator to something less noticeable in Hud Options > Additonal Hud Options > Hud Seperator

thanks for your quick response...

yea, i can see their point of view and their reason for wanting the separator to be white but i've played 1.5 mil hands with it the old way and have been trying for the last 24 hrs to get used to white separator and i just can't...(yes i sound like a whiny old woman)

the whiteness of the slash and also how it's much brighter than the stats (since i use a medium opacity) just steals my initial focus and since i'm 24 tabling and need to look at in process the stats in < 1 sec its really hindering my game and making it impossible for me to play 24 tables effectively.

i'm sure i'm probably a minority in this so i understand if there's no way possible i can change this in the 1.07 version.

Is there an easy way for me to replace the 1.07 version on my computer and go back to the 1.06.03 version. i couldn't find the 1.06.03 installation version anywhere on my computer or on your website.


oh and i just tried to use something less noticible... like a "-" or even a space as a separator... they are better but they don't please my eyes like the other version did... i guess after 1.5 mil hands my eyes are just honed in on certain things and i guess the slashes that just blend in are part of it.


thanks a bunch

Going back in versions might cause alot of issues as there were several HH updates and there will be more so that would only be a temporary solution and wouldnt last long. You can post here and if theres enough support maybe Mike can add the choice http://holdemmanager.uservoice.com/

i understand these implications of relying on an older version and am still willing to risk these future implications for the short term benefit it will provide me so if there is a way you could link me to the 1.06.03 version i'd appreciate it... if that's not an option then i will just have to take a week or two to get use to the new slashes..

i will also take your recommendation to post my opinions in the uservoice forum...

thanks again

I have perhaps an alternativ solution:
Go to "HUD Options => Player Preferences" and change the color of your slashes, put something more discreet like the grey, here:

okay, i'll give that a try.... i didn't realize that was the color control for the separator...

thanks,
