Installed my lightwave 6 and patched to 6.5 over the weekend on my PC. (XP, P4, 512MB, GeForce 4 440,), and have a weird display problem in the modeler and layout.

In layout, for example, where the text boxes are for X Y and Z in the lower left hand corner, or while changing options through Layout>Layout options, any text box where I can type in a value (number), the text is white, which is the same color as the background. In order for me to see what the value in the text box is, I have to highlight it with my mouse. It then turns the background blue so I can see the hidden white text in the box.

Is there a config file or a why to change the text color of value boxes to black or a darker color? What was the default color to begin with?

Search the forums and look in Newtek's FAQ section. This is one of the most common problems you will run into with LightWave, easily resolved.

Thanks, and for those with same issue, I ended up uninstalling all language packs from the Control panel->Regional and language settings. Issue resoved.
