Hi all,

I was reading using my son's Palm last night will in a ride back from
work - in the dark.

I found that the black text on the backlit panel causes a degree of
eye-strain. Can anybody tell me if there is a way of switching the Palm to
"reverse video", so that the white background is turned to black and the
text is bright?

Fyi, I have a Palm Tungsten T3.

Thanks.

Avraham Makeler.

What application were you using to read with? Palm Reader allows for
reversing the video to do just what you want.

Cheers
TC

I think it's a special purpose reader. I will check.

Thanks.

It does, but that's only of use when using Palm Reader. Speaking of which,
the colours have bad contrast when this is done.

Avraham, you should look into hackmaster. If something has the potential to
invert colours, it's an OS extension.

Hackmaster or Xmaster won't work on a T3, it's running Palm OS 5.

No. It has not been updated since 1997, it did not even run well on OS
4.
