Seeing the red

Anybody got any good tips for seeing the red failed features?
My eyes find it really hard to distinguish the light red to grey when trying to find failed features.

I don’t know if what I have is a good idea. It might help you a LITTLE bit
I’ve got some different blue blocker reader glasses.
In the picture ——
the top ones block something like 93% of the blue light
The middle ones, I can’t remember. I think they block maybe 33% of the blue light
The bottom ones do not have any blue light blocking feature at all. They are just standard reader glasses

PS, over the years I've tried all the color filters built into the operating systems (Win and Mac), and also the "color correcting" glasses. None of them in my experience have been worth anything. I always end up at the default operating system color settings.
@nick_papageorge073 I think you're correct, none of the changes with colours or filter helps much, it needs to be in the icon shape.

I did a formal ticket for this item a couple weeks ago and it got added as a feature request, but it might also be applicable to what you are asking here: Add a setting to turn off pre-highlighting when you are moving your mouse around the screen. During a screen-share, or even discussing a design with a colleague standing next to you and both looking at the screen, I like to use the mouse as a pointer to focus attention to what we are talking about. The way it is now, it highlights whatever the mouse is near, and makes the conversation confusing to follow because the whole screen lights up. On Creo, you can change the selection filter to "annotations" (and there are almost never any), which means when you move the mouse around all you see is the design and the mouse pointer. If something like that could be added to onshape, it would make collaborating with others much easier. IMO:) Thanks.

Please allow us to change background color to the standard color palette choices - then we can pick our own background color to relieve eye strain, and maybe this would help the red "pop/contrast" a little more.
