<br>By the way, for the coverage files you should set background-color in "span.lineNoCov" and "span.lineCov" of the css file (for other people reading this having similar problem).<br><br></div>Cheers,<br>

<br>
This is definitely something we need to address. In the meantime, you should be able to tune the cdash.css in order to change the colors.<br>
<br>
.normal {<br>
background-color : #8aba5a;<br>
}<br>
<br>
.warning {<br>
background-color : #fdb66d;<br>
}<br>
<br>
.error {<br>
background-color : #de6868;<br>
}<br>
<br>
.Passed { background-color : #8aba5a; }<br>
.Failed { background-color : #fdba76; }<br>
.Not Run { background-color : #ff6666; }<br>
<br>
The current idea would be to provide different CSS files so that users can switch to the one they want. If you find optimal colors let me know.<br>

Hi,<br>
<br>
I just got a complaint from a user that the color palette used for<br>
viewing the coverage files is very suboptimal for color-blind users. I<br>
see that this has been brought up in the past:<br>

<br>
Has there been any progress on this? Is there a quick way I can change<br>
the green/red colors myself for now on my cdash server?<br>
<br>
Cheers,<br>
Yngve<br>
