Color Blindness considerations

I have an app that uses a black background. It's a thick client, not a
web app.



Relevant background:

-          I don't use color as a primary indicator in any of my
designs.

-          Contrast issues that predated me were identified and fixed
using this took

But now, someone in Executive Management says that his brother who is
red-green color blind said that our app doesn't have enough contrast for
him.



I have found some online tools that allow you to check for red-green
color blindness issues for web apps, but, we're not web-based.



I found a tool online that has some small palette and it shows you what
the palettes look like with various types of color deficiency but I
can't put my own palette in there.



Are there any tools I can use to identify potentially problematic areas?
It seems like I've already done all the best practices I know...and
unfortunately, I don't have further details on the complaint.



Thanks for any help or insights!



Best

Kayla
