CXTPButton::GetButtonBackColor doesn't work

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   Hi!I want
to set the background color for a CXTPButton control, but I can't get it to
work. :-(

I override
the virtual GetButtonBackColor() and return the COLORREF I want. (Like in http://forum.codejock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=18969&title=cxtpbutton)
But nothing happens. I override GetButtonTextColor() the same way to set the
text color, and that works fine. (I'm not using SetTheme. My application uses skins,
but it doesn't help if I disable all skinning.)

Any idea
what could be wrong? I'd be very grateful for any help! :-) I'm currently using
Toolkit Pro 18.6, but will be upgrading to 19.2 soon.

	I found this myself. You have to call SetUseVisualStyle(FALSE) for the button - otherwise GetButtonBackColor() never gets called. /Anders
