Is there way to draw black text on glass area? Currently any color gets turned into background color, even non-black colors. I would like to know if there is any chance to get that text on edit control drawn properly.

#include <GUIConstantsEx.au3>
#include <WindowsConstants.au3>


Dim $ConsoleArea[4] = [0, 0, 480, 0]; Glass area extension
$Struct = DllStructCreate("int cxLeftWidth;int cxRightWidth;int cyTopHeight;int cyBottomHeight;")
$sStruct = DllStructCreate("dword;int;ptr;int")

#Region ### START Koda GUI section ### Form=
$Xorg = GUICreate("Terminal", 640, 480, 0,0, BitOR($WS_MAXIMIZEBOX,$WS_MINIMIZEBOX,$WS_SIZEBOX,$WS_THICKFRAME,$WS_SYSMENU,$WS_CAPTION,$WS_OVERLAPPEDWINDOW,$WS_TILEDWINDOW,$WS_POPUP,$WS_POPUPWINDOW,$WS_GROUP,$WS_TABSTOP,$WS_BORDER,$WS_CLIPSIBLINGS))
$Debug = GUICtrlCreateEdit("Some text", 0, 0, 640, 480,-1,0)
GUICtrlSetResizing(-1, $GUI_DOCKLEFT+$GUI_DOCKRIGHT+$GUI_DOCKTOP+$GUI_DOCKBOTTOM)
GUISetState(@SW_SHOW)
#EndRegion ### END Koda GUI section ###

If _Vista_ICE() = 1 Then;Check if Areo theme is enabled
    GUICtrlSetBkColor($Debug, 0)
    _Vista_ApplyGlassArea($Xorg, $ConsoleArea)
EndIf

While GUIGetMsg() <> -3
WEnd

I thought that if firefox or explorer can do it, why I cant. Just look at images they have black text on areo.
