BuckMaster Posted March 17, 2014 Share Posted March 17, 2014 This is a problem I am having in my project Form Builder ever since I updated to the current AutoIt version, the Bold, Italic, Underline, and Strike-out font attribute buttons go invisible when I change the color to $InactiveColor or $ActiveColor, I added a black label behind the buttons so you can see where they should be, you can still click the buttons but they do not show up. Inactive and Active colors are declared as: $ActiveColor = 0x70CFF4 $InactiveColor = 0xE0E0E0 In the image below I commented out all of the lines that applied $InactiveColor to the bold button and it showed up ex. ;GUICtrlSetBkColor($FontBoldButton, $InactiveColor) These are the only changes I make to $FontBoldButton throughout my script GUICtrlSetFont($FontBoldButton, 8, 800, 0, "Georgia") GUICtrlSetState($FontBoldButton, $GUI_ENABLE) GUICtrlSetState($FontBoldButton, $GUI_DISABLE) GUICtrlSetBkColor($FontBoldButton, $InactiveColor) GUICtrlSetBkColor($FontBoldButton, $ActiveColor) GUICtrlSetResizing($FontBoldButton, 4+64+256+512) Does anyone know why this is happening?

Also, coloring buttons isn't recommended due to some issues when you do that. If I posted any code, assume that code was written using the latest release version unless stated otherwise. Also, if it doesn't work on XP I can't help with that because I don't have access to XP, and I'm not going to.Give a programmer the correct code and he can do his work for a day.

I didn't know colored buttons caused issues but I found a couple topics on it saying its an internal issue that wont be fixed. So i guess I will just swap out the buttons with labels.
