Title: DSO2000 - Change channel colors due to colorblindness
I'm about to get a Hantek DSO2D15 oscilloscope and would like to know if it's possible to change the channel colors from default yellow and green.

I have a degree of colorblindness and those colors sometimes mix up or are hard to differentiate for my eyes.

If not, is it possible to add to a future firmware version? Something like green and blue, or blue and yellow (adding a couple of base colors is fine).

Thanks

Sorry, the waveform color can't be changed.

Same thing here, I bought a DSO2C10, can I change the colors?
I can't see the difference between the 2 inputs

Why can't you consider it as a new feature for a future release. I'm sure it can't be that difficult to code and would be welcomed by your customers that have sight impairments.

In the meantime take a look at this thread: https://www.eevblog.com/forum/testgear/hacking-the-dso2x1x/
it describes a method that allows you to modify the default colours
