I want to change the colors I see when programs run. Now I see white text
on a light gray background in a legend box, impossible to read. Not with a
particular program, all programs.

Control Panel/Display/Appearance

In Desktop, when I select a color, am I selecting text color, or background
color?

And in that list of entries, what is the name of the background in legend
boxes?

Basically, is there a link to describe how to use Display/Appearance?
