It is easies than you think.

1. Go to your HTML5 folder under P3DV5.2 main directory.

2. Open up information.html with a proper html editor.

3. Look up #upper;

4. Check for a line "color; white;"

5. Change it to "color; red;" that is it

6. You might want to change the font size also in the next line: "fone-size: 16px" to something more viewable depending on your screen resolution. I use 20px with 4k monitor.

7. You can also change the #lower which works for text located on the lower part of the screen like "brakes". I personally kept it white.

Hi. Do you know how to move text right to the left upper corner? Because now with 5.2 it slightly below and more to the right

I like the new text size and color better to see on my 4K screen only on for testing never for flying, FPS locked at 30 flying don`t need it.

Same question here.

I've set my upper more closely to the corner both ways up and left (and right) and the same for the lower right, my setting mods are the following (this is for my display which is 21:9 and 3440 x 1440):

            #upper
            {
                display: flex;
                position: fixed;
                top: 0%;

                width: 99.5%;
                color: white;
                font-size: 14px;

it worked for me, BTW, you can do it live, in real time with the sim and scenario open and see the changes right away after pressing save in the text editor of choice.

I can change the text color, and from 'bold' to 'light', but the text size does not seem responsive, and the type of font in the upper left seems different than in the lower left. Where/how are the font types for those respective locations specified?

Thx,

A

[UPDATE]  Fonts are the same. Turns out they looked somewhat different depending on whether there was a light or dark background. I still can't change the font size, however.

Changes text and color worked with P3Dv5.2

With P3Dv5.3 didn't work.

These lines pasted over the same lines in Prepar3D.cfg will change the text colour in all four corners to cream.
For white, substitute 255,255,255 for 255,255,204
It worked in FSX and it works in all versions of P3D up to and including 5.3.15.28130

InfoUpperLeftTextColorUser=255,255,204
InfoUpperLeftTextColorNonUser=255,255,204
InfoUpperLeftBackGroundColor=0,0,0,0
InfoUpperRightTextColor=255,255,204
InfoUpperRightBackGroundColor=0,0,0,0
InfoLowerLeftTextColor=255,255,204
InfoLowerLeftBackGroundColor=0,0,0,0
InfoLowerRightTextColor=255,255,204
InfoLowerRightBackGroundColor=0,0,0,0

Changes in the information.html do nothing in v5.3 for me

Apologies, I had wrongly assumed that you wanted a solution.
