I've got 10.3.1, and have some CEdit controls in the CXTPStatusBar.

The background color is always grey for the controls, even in a ribbon theme.

Is there any way to change that?

Thanks

Gary

Hi,

See in MSDN ON_WM_CTLCOLOR_REFLECT( ) macros.

OK, here's the code that seems to work:

HBRUSH CTestView::CtlColor(CDC* pDC, UINT /*nCtlColor*/){

CMainFrame *pMain = (CMainFrame *)theApp.m_pMainWnd;

COLORREF col = pMain->GetCommandBars()->GetPaintManager()->GetXtremeColor(XPCOLOR_TOOLBAR_FACE);

m_brBkgnd.DeleteObject();

m_brBkgnd.CreateSolidBrush( col );

return m_brBkgnd; }

This is in the class header:

CBrush m_brBkgnd;
