Hello all,
Anyone off the top of their head know the answer to
setting the background of a control with
setWindowBackColor( List, {0, 0, 0} )
afterwards setting the color of the text
such as setTextColor( List, Red )
which doesnt work.
I'll probably find the answer on my own just thought
it'd be a good question as we near the next release
of win32lib.........

I don't know that one either. I've been trying to set the text color of an
edit control with no luck yet.
setWindowBackColor() should work okay. It does in 0.56.

To set background color of edit control: Every time edit control receives
WM_PAINT or something similar, you must return a color value or brush, I
don't remember exactly. I can make an example if you want.

This is exactly what Win32Lib does now, that's why it works. However, I
haven't worked out how to change the TEXT COLOR in some controls. Mind, you,
I haven't spent a lot of time trying yet either. I suspect I have to handle
subclassing a bit better.
