Highlight white font functionality - mIRC Discussion Forums

good day

I recently upgraded to version 7.17 and am unable to highlight using white font, all other colors work correctly. is this a known bug, or has this functionality been lost white font on white background?

thank you in advance for any information

This is due to the "Automatic text color correction" feature, introduced in v7.0.
You're still able to have "white on white": put white as the foreground- and the background color of your text.

86.Added check for foreground/background colors in control codes in text. If they are the same, the foreground color is changed to ensure the text is visible.

2.Changed the foregound [sic] /background color correction feature so that it no longer applies if a ^K background color is specified.
