Hi,
I can't for the life of me figure out how to change some of the GUI colors.
In particular the color of a border around a frame. With my current color scheme the borders are Teal I guess, and I want them to be black.
Sounds simple enough, but I can not figure out where that #@#$$ Teal is configured so that I can change it. Changed just about any color
in gui.rpy, but that didn't help.
I don't remember off the top of my head, but try pressing the shift key plus i while hovering your mouse over the border - the inspection tool.
It should tell you what style is affecting it and even take you right to the line if you click.

that's not a style, is an actual image in the gui folder called frame.png. Edit it with your image editor (if you want all your frames to change), or define another background for that frame.
Also, is good to know that Renpy creates those images when creating the project but you can later change the color values in gui.rpy and ask renpy to re-create the images based on the colors you have changed (Change/Update GUI)
