Hi,
I am trying to set the report controls HighlightBackColor to orange using

control.PaintManager.HighlightBackColor = 0xFFA500

When testing this out the hightlight color shows blue not orange... am I missing something?

thanks!

Hi,
 
You didn't miss anything... It's showing blue indeed.
Strange though, when using value (converted) hex to RGB it shows orange:  RGB(255,165,0) 
 
Maybe CJ support can enlighten us Wink
 
Thanks

Hi,
 
Does it also mean that all values have to be reversed? I only could get orange with &H5AFF  
 
Like this: 
FF A5 00    >>     00 5A FF

Thanks Aaron and Jantje.

This works for me. ".PaintManager.HighlightBackColor = 0x00A5FF;"

I didn't need to reverse each value, just switch them to suit BGR. Seems a bit backwards but at least it works!Smile

The function RGB converts the color to OLE_COLOR, this is really BGR in Hex.
Other languages works with native RGB-hexvalues (like htm), for normal windowscontrols you have to convert to OLE_COLOR.
This is not a problem of CJ, this is default for Windows.
