How to assign a color to TGroup
Posted: Wed Dec 23, 2009 08:51 AM

As subject. I need to assign a color to the line of the group (not to the inside). The following sample doesn't work:

#include "Fivewin.ch"


FUNCTION MAIN()

    LOCAL oDlg

    DEFINE DIALOG oDlg

    @ 1, 1 TO 4, 20;
           COLOR CLR_HRED

    ACTIVATE DIALOG oDlg;
             CENTER

    RETURN NIL

Enrico,

Have you tried this syntax?

@ <nTop>, <nLeft> [ GROUP <oGroup> ] TO <nBottom>, <nRight> ;
[ <label:LABEL,PROMPT> <cLabel> ] ;
[ OF <oWnd> ] ;
[ COLOR <nClrFore> [,<nClrBack>] ] ;

Regards,
James

Colors are not working for Groups in a Themed application.
For non-themed application, forecolor is used to paint the prompt, if any, and back color is used to fill the entire group area including the border.
Color has no effect on the color of the border in both cases.

Yes, but it doesn't work.
