John,
Options - Change Colours gets you to the full Colour Change screen. It
opens a pink box. When that is open you can click on all parts of the
screen and choose different colours. Note some areas you may want to
change don't have a fairly small area to click without bringing up the
colour change options for something else entirely. eg the background -
you may actually click on one of the hidden quick navigation panes next
to the name boxes.
For some things you need to go to the link for other user-interface
colours OR go straight there in Options - Customise 9.2
When you have the colours as you like, make sure you save them for
future use with your own distinctive name. Then you can just choose your
own colour scheme again if you have to reset your settings to Legacy
defaults. I add my initials to any colour scheme I create to make them
easy to spot in the list.
Saved colour schemes are at ...\Documents\Legacy Family
Tree\_AppData\ColorSchemes\ folder
For extra safety backup this folder or your own colour schemes files to
your off computer backup.

I have been doing that. The only bit of background I was able to
change are strips which tells the relationships, between husband, wife
and their parents.

Subject: Re: [LegacyUG] Is it possible to change colours in the
“Vintage” colour scheme in Family View and Pedigree View?
Right click on the background and select change color scheme.

I had a bug and in process of fixing it, the person from Legacy
Technical Support told me to delete the usr file. This solved the
problem but it also deleted all of my customised settings including
background colours.
I cannot find a way to get the Family View or Pedigree View background
colours back to how they were. All of the available colour schemes are
basically gradient except Vintage. I do not like gradient because I
have a visual impairment. Vintage however seems to only have one
colour scheme which is too bright and I cannot find a way to change
its colours. I have tried options in the user-interface colours but
nothing changes the colour of the background around the field boxes in
Family View and Pedigree View.
From my memory of when I set the colours many years ago, I used
Vintage and changed the background colour, so I believe it can be done
somehow.
