OK, perhaps some things are added, but changes are not applied. Please see the following section of the Palm OS Companion document: User Interface => Color and Grayscale Support => UI Color List (page 147) There is the following paragraph: <QUOTE> To obtain the color list, the system first tries to load it from the synchronized preferences database using the value sysResIDPrefUIColorTableBase plus the current screen depth. The use of a preference allows for the possibility that individual users could customize the look using a third party "personality" or "themes" editor. [...] </QUOTE> Unfortunately Palm OS 5 doesn't do it. It simply ignores the "sysResIDPrefUIColorTableBase plus the current screen depth" resource from the "synchronized preferences database". My question is what is the compliant method in Palm OS 5? - how to set up the user interface color theme for a longer time than just for my application runtime (which I can still do in OS 5 with the UIColorSetTableEntry function)? It works perfectly on previous versions of Palm OS (up to 4.1) but it doesn't work on Palm OS 5! -- Radoslaw Nowak, RNS:: www.ranosoft.com/palm -- For information on using the Palm Developer Forums, or to unsubscribe, please see http://www.palmos.com/dev/support/forums/
