First, it is "Kisolre" and here when you rename a person you have to buy him a shirt ;) :D
The green was the second option because in your last screenshot (gray background) and also here the text is not well readable so a more contrasting one should be better. And since it is not an actual error anything resembling red will be interpreted as such.

Another thing with partially redundant constraints present - I found out that in the provided file if I can add some dimensional constraints and they neither cause errors nor are reported as redundant. Here is a short clip:

I don't really mind the color if it is not black (could be ignored) nor green (could be taken for fully constrained).

Oh, so bad. I am admittedly dyslexic. In your case it might not have gone very bad. At the beginning I was reading "realhunter" instead of "realthunder". I will try to remap that consonant. :lol:

Ok. I committed royal blue. Let me know if that did not turn out right.

NaviBlue looks better. I have some remains from a theme there but that just improves readability (despite being ugly :) ).
