Thanks, you're absolutely correct, the color was inherited from the mainstack. I'm not sure I would have figured that out myself even if I spent a day on the problem. I'm grateful for this discussion to help with problems like this!!

Hi all,

Here is a problem that is probably something really stupid that I'm doing, just can't figure out what.

In my application when I create a new substack the window comes up black. There is no color property in the inspector, the window is just black. I can change the color of the window by adding a color property but it seems it shouldn't open black in the first place.

Probably related, I've noticed that whenever I have a dialog window open it also is in black.

Var,

Objects in Revolution inherit properties from their parents objects. In the case of substacks (and dialogs are just specialized substacks), the parent is the mainstack. Check the backgroundColor prop of the mainstack. It's probably been set to black. If it isn't that, then somehow the default background color for the engine got set to black, it which case I'm out of my depth.
