Hi,

Love DDMsgReader!

I was wondering if it is possible to adjust the colours within the messages themselves. By this, I mean different colours for, say, quotes or Origin lines.

I couldn't spot anything obvious in the Theme configuration file.

Thanks,

Mewcenary.

Currently there isn't. The main reason is that someone who writes a message might add their own color(s) to the message, and quote lines might also have different colors in places (depending on what editor was used and how the lines were quoted). Allowing the message reader to color the message text would probably mean having it remove any existing coloring in order to use the reader's own colors, but then the message wouldn't always appear as written.
