Why, In Xp, Are Some Form Object's Colornormal Properties Being Ignored? |
|
Answer» The XP manifest file is used to have your form objects look like the new XP common CONTROLS. Because of this, pushbuttons; rectangles; notebooks and possibly other objects have their color settings all or partially overwridden. The pushbutton has a PROPERTY CALLED systemTheme which when set to false (the DEFAULT is true) will ignore the manifest file and use the OLD common controls thereby allowing the color settings to show.
