Thanks,

that fixed it, the same problem as the Panel. Since we always subclass all components, it was simple to fix. And now the dratted statictext... I will try the same fix for that.

In case anyone has missed it, this is because a property is defaulted in the original component say to True. In a descendant component's constructor you set it to false. Now, in the Object Inspector you can never set it to True - if you do, it doesn't save it because it is default. Therefore the descendant constructor sets it to false.

This is the problem in the background color with XP manifest for Panel, Label and StaticText... so far. :-)

I came across this some years ago. I use D7. The solution is to set the Transparency property to False at runtime. It is set to True automatically somewhere during app initalization and it ignores the IDE setting.
