Hi All, 4D allows background images to be associated with menu bars, which is useful. However, is there a way to modify the grayish-brown backdrop which is aways in the background of an application running on Windows? (Example. If you turn off Display Windows Splash Screen on the interface tab of the Database Settings your application will open with this grayish-brown backdrop. It stays in the background, which is perfect. I would like to modify how it looks…Possible??)
In an effort to create a custom background I have tried turning on the Splash Screen under Interface/Database Settings and then setting it to full screen at startup. This works fine if you only use the Application process. However, if you have multiple processes running, each containing an output or input window, a user can accidentally click on the Application process window brining it forward and hiding the other process windows. Essentially you are bringing the background window to the font and moving all other windows behind it… Not a great user experience. Even if there were a simple command to send a specific window to the back - I could probably work with it to get the effect I want. unfortunately, there is no such command (that I could find…). It seem like it should be easy, but I am obviously missing something. I would like to have a custom, modern looking multi-process application. To do so I need control over a static background. Thoughts?
