Ed,
Thanks for the tip!
It seems that the setAll statement below is changing the Dynamic for the
panel itself and not the children textboxes...
def myPanel(dabo.ui.dPanel)
def afterInitAll(self):
self.setAll("DynamicForeColor",self.fieldForeColor,filt="BaseClass ==
dabo.ui.dTextBox")
self.setAll("DynamicBackColor",self.fieldBackColor,filt="BaseClass ==
dabo.ui.dTextBox")
UPDATE RAConvTextBox {'ForeColor': <bound method RAKiloPanel.fieldForeColor
of <RAKiloPanel (baseclass dabo.ui.dPanel, id:-430)>>, 'BackColor': <bound
method RAKiloPanel.fieldBackColor of <RAKiloPanel (baseclass dabo.ui.dPanel,
id:-430)>>}
What did I do wrong?
Thanks,
Larry

No, not really. I just tried with a similar case, and only got the
one method firing.
Try this: modify your dPemMixin.py file so that the update() method
(around line 1139) looks like:
1139 def update(self):
1140 """Update the properties of this object and all contained
objects."""
1141 if isinstance(self, dabo.ui.deadObject):
1142 # This can happen if an object is released when there is a
1143 # pending callAfter() refresh.
1144 return
1145
1146 print "UPDATE", self.Name, self._dynamic
1147 self.__updateDynamicProps()
1148
1149 if isinstance(self, dabo.ui.dForm) and
self.AutoUpdateStatusText:
1150 self.setStatusText(self.getCurrentRecordText())
1151
1152 if self.Children:
1153 self.raiseEvent(dEvents.Update)
Afterwards, run your code an you should get a bunch of statements
printing out. What I'm thinking is that perhaps the internal attribute
self._dynamic, which holds the dictionary of dynamic properties, is not
getting updated properly. Post the output so that I can better see what is
going on.
