    Default White type and the editor


    Hi all,
    Simple frustration here...
    I have been using Director for years, and although this has bugged me to
    death, I have never sought a solution.
    How does one use white typography in the text editor effectively so that you
    can see it when editing!
    It would be handy if one could change the background colour in the editor
    itself...

    Anyone else have and tips?

    Thanks,
    Cliff
