ACS Monochrome

I wish to see Access Client Solutions (ACS) to have an option to display 5250 as monochrome instead of colors. Make reversed colors into black background and white font. Simlar to monochrome twinax monitor of old days.

High Contrast would be appreciated.

Reason is some of us are old and vision issues.

Thank you.


Use Case:

Ease of viewing 5250 screens.

    The ability to configure the background and font colors is already provided. Providing a way to toggle to a monochrome look will not be provided.
