oFolder:SetColor()

[Willy]

I Tried this and this does not work.

Is there a way to change the color of a folder.

Thanks

Willy.

Willy,

If you are using XP themes then you can't change the folder color

You can change the color of the dialogs that the folder manages oFld:aDialogs

Thanks Antonio,

I have also tried with

oFold1:aDialogs[1]:Setcolor()

But this does also not work

Hello Antonio,
could you please post a bit of code how to change the color of the folder dialogs.
Thanks in advance
Otto

Code: Select all  Expand view

1 24 "Windows.Man"

When you use this line in your Resources file, it will not work

Otherwise you can use this

Code: Select all  Expand view

oDlg:SetColor(Rgb(0,0,0),Rgb(200,200,255))

oFold1:SetColor(Rgb(0,0,0),Rgb(200,200,255))

oFold1:aDialogs[1]:SetColor(Rgb(0,0,0),Rgb(200,200,255))
oFold1:aDialogs[2]:SetColor(Rgb(0,0,0),Rgb(200,200,255))
oFold1:aDialogs[3]:SetColor(Rgb(0,0,0),Rgb(200,200,255))
oFold1:aDialogs[4]:SetColor(Rgb(0,0,0),Rgb(200,200,255))
oFold1:aDialogs[5]:SetColor(Rgb(0,0,0),Rgb(200,200,255))

It works with me.

Greetings

Thank you, Willy. It is working.
Do you also know how to change the TAB of the folder?
Thanks in advance,

Try assigning oFolder:aPrompts[ n ] and refresh the folder (not tested).

How do you assingn?
I tried
oFld:aPrompts[ 1 ]:SetColor(Rgb(0,0,0),Rgb(168,207,110))
but get no exported method.
