Hi Ed, this is possible, but you have to use notepad to edit the moi.ini configuration file to adjust these particular settings right now.

If you're running on XP, you will find moi.ini here:
c:\Documents and Settings\ [your login name] \Application Data\Moi\moi.ini

Make sure you close down MoI before editing the moi.ini file.


The settings that you are asking for are under the [View] section:

[View]
LineUnselectedColor=0,0,0
LineSelectedColor=255,255,32
SurfaceUnselectedColor=255,255,255
SurfaceUnselectedTransitionColor=255,255,208
SurfaceSelectedTransitionColor=255,255,128
SurfaceSelectedColor=239,239,0
TextColor=51,51,51
LineWidth=1

The colors are given as red,green,blue color values.

The ones that are labeled "Transition" are the colors used when you hover over top of an object before you click on it.

Hopefully that should do the trick for you, let me know if you have any questions,

Hi,

Is it also possible to change the thickness of the selected yellow lines (curves / edges) ?
I searched through the CSS file but not sure where ;-)

Hi Tom,

Selected lines are automatically set to be 2 pixels wider than regular lines. So you can't set it directly but if you adjust the regular display line width it will follow along with that.

The regular line width can be set in moi.ini (go to Options > General > "Edit .ini file" button, then under the [View] section you'll find:

[View]
.....
LineWidth=1.0

Wow you are fast - thank you !

Hi Tom, also I should mention that you'd use the LineWidth= setting in moi.ini if you wanted to increase the size of the lines.

If you want to make the lines lighter instead of thicker, there is a different setting that can help with that:

[View]
....
UseThinAntiAliasing=n


Switch it to UseThinAntiAliasing=y and the blended area around the outside of lines will be lessened, making for a lighter looking line display.
