I'm using .665 and perl 5.61. I have not been able to determine how to get controls to inherit any color other than the color defined for COLOR_3DFACE/COLOR_BTNFACE in the user's configuration.
Using the -foreground and -background attributes works for the few controls that support these properties. However, many controls (checkboxes, buttons, tabstrips) have no color control as far as I can tell. Am I missing something? I messed around with trying to create a new class for each control with the -color attribute of the window set but it appears that the subclassing doesn't work? I did some poking around in the SendMessage info on MSDN and tried to find a way to maybe use SendMessage to change the control color but I couldn't quite understand how to do it ;) Any help here would be appreciated, the goal is to create an application with colors that I define rather than colors taken from the users default color scheme. Is this even possible? Thanks, Michael
