Description rpNoSpam CLA 2006-10-16 14:58:51 EDT
When turning on the Window 2000 accessiblity feature to provide high contrast settings, the GEF editor's palette is not affected by the setting.  The rest of the eclipse presentation (for the most part) goes into high contrast mode, while the palette remains as it was prior to the high contrast setting.

The expectation is that you restart Eclipse after switching to high contrast (same as Eclipse forms). Can you confirm that this is the case?

That does indeed solve the problem.  Thanks for the information.
