mickfly 327 Posted November 22, 2017 (edited) If I was in a normal workplace and had to re-tag my legacy images I would have to have something changed as I am suffering serious eye strain after about 10 mins editing! Can the greyed out tags be lightened (EDIT:: I meant darkened, thanks for the correction NYC) just a little, or perhaps have the colour changed? Is it just me, or would anyone else like to agree/disagree? It really is preventing me re-tagging, and they need doing.

NYCat 1,103 Posted November 22, 2017 It's definitely not just you but I think they need to be darkened, not lightened. A different color is a good idea. Then they could be different but still dark enough to be legible. These were my requests back in February... http://discussion.alamy.com/topic/7085-please-make-the-image-manager-easier-on-the-eyes/ There have been many requests since then -- often asking for more legibility in the greyed-out tags. Personally I have trouble with the whole idea of having tags in separate boxes though it is useful for making phrases. It's just difficult for my brain to sort out what I have. I seldom even make an attempt with old images because I was using all the boxes and have more than 50 tags on almost every image. Paulette Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

wiskerke 2,124 Posted November 22, 2017 Maybe try an iPad. It seems fine. On a desktop you could try zooming in: In Chrome and Firefox: Ctrl + In Internet Explorer go to View. In Safari and Firefox on a Mac: pinch. wim Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
