Hello,

I noticed a problem with < ChooseColor() >
restoring the old color, doesn't seems to work
a BREAK returns always 0 ( black )
Also tested changing the color BEFORE the break but still black
Return NIL would be ok, because 0 is a color as well can be selected.

tested as well with sample < LINES.prg >

STATIC PROCEDURE NewColor()
LOCAL OldColor := nColor
if ( nColor := ChooseColor() ) == -1 // NO result
// MsgAlert( nColor ) = returns always 0 !!!
nColor := OldColor
endif

any idea how to keep the old color ?



added a alert to the color-selection



best regards
Uwe

Uwe,

FWH function ChooseColor() supports two optional parameters:

As the first parameter you may provide it the "oldColor" and that value will be returned
when the user press cancel

Antonio,

thank You very much for the info.
With included parameters in < ChooseColor() > it works fine now.
flag = 1 opens a small and flag = 2 opens a full color-selection.

best regards
Uwe
