These boxes should use the same background color as the text background colors of the source windows. For example, I use a dark blue color for the background of my source windows, but since VAX uses white, I can't read any of the text in the Context and Definition fields.

If you look back in the forums, there has already been a lot of discussion of this (e.g. threads 1331, 1398).

A summary: they don't have control over the background colours. The fix is to turn off text colouring in those windows, as described under "Dark Backgrounds" at http://www.wholetomato.com/x/products/features/color.html?more=yes.

Of course, if you do this, you lose the advantages of syntax colouring in those windows. I suggested in thread 1331 a second set of text colours for those light-background windows. I don't know if they're considering this.
