    Right click on the Task in the lower-right window (Task Management), Click Task Properties. There's a selection there for colors and other settings.

    Just curious what you changed the background and wiring colors to? One thing I will say about Rockwell software, the ability to change colors to everything is really nice. I was an Icom user before their takeover by Rockwell, so I always change the backgrounds to match Icom. Too bad we can't do the same to P-suite.

    You can also change the fonts, font size, and colors of each type of text on the ladder:

    { "data-align ": "none ", "data-size ": "full ", "data-attachmentid ":118614}

    APS, AP or both?

    I when with light gray back ground. I did not change anything else. I just didn't like the white.

    but either way it's better than the old Modicon suitcase back in the late 80's!

    As I recall, APS was the Allen-Bradley version and it sucked, so I'll go with AP. I had a customer turn me onto Icom, but there was the one who insisted on APS for his equipment.
