Menu and Buttonbar Colors

[dpaterso]

Good Evening,

Is there any way to change / set the color of MENU and BUTTONBAR?

I don't think you can change menu colors. For the buttonbar try SetColor() method.

Good Morning,

Well that's no good!!!

I have tried the SetColor( ) method for the Button Bar - it almost works but there is a sort of 'color bleeding' that occurs - I don't know why!

It's not serious - I just thought it would be nice to be able to change the colors - change the appearance to something like Nero 7.

Thanks anyway,

Regards,

Dale.

Please take the time to build (and post) a reduced and self-contained sample of the problem.

I haven't seen Nero 7 yet but I can easily imagine that it doesn't use standard menus if they are coloured different than the standard menus.

I have tried to change the buttonbar colors in RPREVIEW.PRG
and it seems to work fine.
I do not see any 'colors bleeding'.

for buttonbar 2007 style, we can assign our own color gradient by setting a codeblock to oBar:bClrGradient
