 Topic: LoadSkin() + text color of check boxPosted: 20 January 2008 at 10:18am |

If I enable skinning via LoadSkin(), it seems impossible to change the text color of a check box in OnCtlColor().
How do I enforce a specific text color on my check box, preserving the skinned style for the actual check box?
As soon as I disable the call to LoadSkin(), the color is successfully set. This is driving me nuts!
Thanks!

Hi,
Do you use CDialog derived dialog ?

No, CWnd-derived (code is based on CXTPColorSelectorCtrl) with a CButton in it. I also tried making it transparent, which turned out to be extremely hard. All I want is the check box to be transparent, and its text white. I handle WM_CTLCOLOR and call SetTextColor(white), SetBkMode(TRANSPARENT). It works when XP Theme/XTP Skinning is disabled, otherwise the entire control becomes black. I also tried calling SetWindowTheme(m_btnCheck.m_hWnd, L"", L""), but that didn't help.I'm getting desperate :)

Just in case anybody wonders how to accomplish this; here's the final solution: After creating the check box:
XTPSkinManager().Remove(m_checkBox.m_hWnd);
Then in OnCtlColor:
if (pWnd->GetDlgCtrlID() == IDC_CHECKBOX)
{ pDC->SetTextColor(RGB(255, 0, 0)); pDC->SetBkMode(TRANSPARENT); return (HBRUSH)m_patternBrush; } Where m_patternBrush is the pattern brush of the parent window from the window coordinates of the check box.
