Fonts and Colors
This page customizes the global fonts, colors, and line widths used across the VoceVista interface — the analyzer view, the spectrum, the spectrogram, the staff view, and so on. Use it to tune contrast against a particular spectrum colormap, or to make the display friendlier for projection or screen-sharing.
Editing properties
Properties are organized in a tree at the center of the page, with two top-level groups:
- Fonts
-
The fonts used by the various views (axis labels, slider labels, staff view notes, …). Click a font row to change its family, size, and bold / italic style.
- Colors
-
Every recolorable element (background colors, axis colors, cursor lines, voice-range bands, …). Click a color row to open the color picker.
Some color rows also expose a line width sub-property that controls how thick the corresponding line is drawn.
Expand a category to see its members; the tree remembers which categories were last expanded.
Profile management
The Profile bar on the right of the page stores complete fonts-and- colors layouts. Profiles let you switch between different visual themes (e.g. a high-contrast theme for projection vs. a softer theme for daily use) without having to re-edit every property.
- Rename / Copy
-
Save the current profile under a new name. Built-in profiles must be copied before they can be edited.
- Delete
-
Delete the currently selected profile. Built-in profiles cannot be deleted.
- Read-only
-
Mark the current profile as read-only to prevent accidental edits.
Global colors vs. colormap-linked colors
Settings on this page define the global fonts-and-colors profile — they apply unless something else overrides them.
A colormap can override specific UI colors using the Linked UI Colors tab on the Colormap Editor. For example, a "White background" colormap can pin the spectrum background to white no matter which fonts-and-colors profile is active. When such an override exists, the colormap’s value wins for as long as that colormap is selected.
| Fonts can only be set globally — the Linked UI Colors tab does not override font choices, only colors and line widths. |
