KB#00853-Setting background color in a main or child window
Title:
Setting background color in a main or child window
Description:
The following code illustrates the use of the backcolor and clearbg mnemonics, and the clear mnemonic, in setting background colors in windows and child windows. The documentation on 'backcolor' implies that this should work.
begin
rem test colors in a child window
sysgui=unt
open(sysgui)"X0"
x=100
y=100
w=824
h=568
title$="Test Window"
flags$=$82$
eventmask$=$ff$
true=1
false=0
done=false
print (sysgui)'WINDOW'(x,y,w,h,title$,flags$)
print (sysgui)'child'(101,x+10,y+10,w-200,h-200,$$,$$,1)
print (sysgui)'context'(0)
print (sysgui)'backcolor'(1),'clearbg'
print (sysgui)'context'(1)
print (sysgui)'clear'(128,128,128)
dim event$:tmpl(sysgui)
event=len(event$)
repeat
readrecord(sysgui,siz=event)event$
if event.code$="X" then done=true
until done
release
