That will let you mod the ship labels (the name, corp ticker, alliance, ticker, ect. that appears to the right of a selected ship or object). It's a little haphazard but gets the job done, though it glitches a bit if you choose to show modified labels for players in NPC corporations. I would also suggest having no more than two lines for each object label, any more causes Eve's labels to overlap each other when it creates label groups if you hover your mouse over clusters of object icons in space.

As for window headers, not sure you can. Tab names, however, can be manually adjusted in game actually and relatively simply. Go into overview settings in game and click on tabs, which will have fill boxes for entering text to appear for each tab name. There you can insert html codes to restructure the font, color, and size of the text making up the tab names.

http://www.html.am/html-codes/ <- that might help you find some codes to use. Most common to use is changing color, which is +color=red- at the front of the tab name and adding +/color- at the end of it (replace "+" with a "<" and "-" with a ">"). Once you get it down to a routine, it becomes easy to try out different colors, fonts, and properties to spruce up the overview a bit.

Edit: Btw, the program that is the first link will create an XML file rather than a YAML file, but Eve still recognizes XML when importing them, it just doesn't create XML anymore, so the program still works.

Read the WHOLE line, not just what you underlined.

Though they have permitted both forms of modifications I've listed throughout Eve's life span. I can personally assure you as I have used and currently are using both methods without so much as a single warning, command to cease, or ban in my entire six years in Eve. They have at most been quietly neutral on the matter of modding or using modified overview settings like I showed as they offer nothing for the player that he/she can get in game already, it simply alters the appearance but not the information it shows. As long as it remains purely cosmetic in nature, I'm certain CCP will not object.

And I ask (and certainly hope) any GM, CCP Dev, or other official to correct me if I'm wrong.

You can't change that.

In terms of modding fonts and colour of text, you can only change it in the overview/brackets in space and in the corp titles that can be given to players.

Changing anything else by messing with CCP's files will get you banned if you work out a way of doing it.

I'd like to know the secret to modify my overview and change color, font, etc.

Cheers, thanks for posting my app here I'd like to know how it glitches if you use it for labels for players in NPC corps though.

It still does make XML-files indeed, so far I haven't found the time/necessity to change this.

Just to make it clear, changing the colors of the tabs/shiplabels is -not- against the EULA. Otherwise this thread would've looked slightly different.

You surely wouldn't need any salt for your fries anymore, for the rest of your life.
