Re: Change GET TEXT COLOR when GET Focused.

Posted:

Hi Otto, Uwe ,

Want to set globally but, as SetGetColorFocus() function I can set color only for Background not for Text. Is there any way so I can set color for both Text and Background globally ?

Thanks
Shridhar

Shridhar,
maybe SetGetColorFocus() is what you are looking for.
Best regrads,
Otto

Shridhar,

Changing a SINGLE-get ( not global !!! ),
otherwise Ottos solution.

REDEFINE GET oGet VAR nTickCount ID 970 PICTURE "99999" OF oDlg UPDATE

This changes the GET ON FOCUS to RED with black text
oGet1:bGotFocus := { | nKey, nFlags | oGet:SetColor( 0, 255 ) }

This changes the GET to WHITE with black text
oGet1:bLostFocus := { | nKey, nFlags | oGet:SetColor( 0, 16777215 ) }

Best Regards
Uwe :-)
