Champak Posted July 5, 2016 Share Posted July 5, 2016 (edited) I don't understand, I have the progress color working on other apps right now, but I just created this simple basic gui, and the color wont set. Win 8.1, Autoit 3.3.12 #include <ProgressConstants.au3> #include <GUIConstantsEx.au3> #include <ColorConstants.au3> $Form133 = GUICreate("DB Meter", 422, 200, 0, 0) GUISetBkColor("0xff0000") $Progress1 = GUICtrlCreateProgress(0, 0, 222, 20) GUICtrlSetData(-1, 50) ; GUICtrlSetColor(-1, 16711680) GUICtrlSetColor(-1, 0xff0000) ; GUICtrlSetColor(-1, "0xff0000") GUISetState(@SW_SHOW, $Form133) Sleep(3000) What am I not seeing, I've never had this issue before? Is Win8 considered Vista style? Edited July 5, 2016 by Champak Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrewManNH Posted July 5, 2016 Share Posted July 5, 2016 You have to add the 2 lines that I commented below. #include <ProgressConstants.au3> #include <GUIConstantsEx.au3> #include <ColorConstants.au3> #include <WinAPITheme.au3> ; <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< $Form133 = GUICreate("DB Meter", 422, 200, 0, 0) GUISetBkColor("0xff0000") $Progress1 = GUICtrlCreateProgress(0, 0, 222, 20) _WinAPI_SetWindowTheme(GUICtrlGetHandle($Progress1), "", "") ; <<<<<<<<<<<< GUICtrlSetData(-1, 50) ; GUICtrlSetColor(-1, 16711680) GUICtrlSetColor(-1, 0xff0000) ; GUICtrlSetColor(-1, "0xff0000") GUISetState() Sleep(3000) If I posted any code, assume that code was written using the latest release version unless stated otherwise.

Champak Posted July 5, 2016 Author Share Posted July 5, 2016 (edited) Figured out what I had in my other apps if anyone runs into this. DllCall("uxtheme.dll", "none", "SetThemeAppProperties", "int", 1) Edited July 5, 2016 by Champak Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Champak Posted July 5, 2016 Author Share Posted July 5, 2016 Seems you posted while I was. I'll try out your suggestion as well, thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrewManNH Posted July 5, 2016 Share Posted July 5, 2016 The WinAPI UDF has that function in it now.
