howto: colored layer over updating EDIT control

[Simpel]

Hi,

I'm trying to create a console reader. All is working but I have a problem with the look. I want the line numbers with another backgroundcolor in silver. I made this with a small silver label. The edit control over the label has a transparent background.

But if I start the prog then i can see how the line numbers wipe the silver background off. And if I click into the Edit then the silver label disappears completely.

Opt("GUIOnEventMode", 1)

Global $g_iZaehler = 0

Global $g_hGUI = GUICreate("Console: StdoutRead" , 800, 800, -1, -1, $WS_OVERLAPPEDWINDOW + $WS_CLIPCHILDREN, $WS_EX_ACCEPTFILES)
GUISetOnEvent($GUI_EVENT_CLOSE, "_Exit")

Global $text = GUICtrlCreateEdit("",10,30,780,760, $ES_AUTOVSCROLL + $WS_VSCROLL + $ES_READONLY + $ES_NOHIDESEL)
GUICtrlSetState(-1, $GUI_DROPACCEPTED)
GUICtrlSetFont(-1, 9, -1, -1, "Lucida Console")
GUICtrlSetResizing(-1, $GUI_DOCKBORDERS)
GUICtrlSetBkColor(-1, $GUI_BKCOLOR_TRANSPARENT)

Global $g_LaZeilen = GUICtrlCreateLabel("Zeilen: " & StringFormat("% 5d", $g_iZaehler), 680, 10, 100, 9, $SS_LEFTNOWORDWRAP)
GUICtrlSetFont(-1, 9, -1, -1, "Lucida Console")
GUICtrlSetResizing(-1, $GUI_DOCKRIGHT + $GUI_DOCKTOP + $GUI_DOCKSIZE)

Global $g_hCbFreeze = GUICtrlCreateCheckbox("&Freeze", 13, 5, 90)
GUICtrlSetFont(-1, 9, -1, -1, "Lucida Console")
GUICtrlSetResizing(-1, $GUI_DOCKALL)

GUICtrlCreateLabel("", 11, 31, 42, 758) ; soll die Ziffern andersfarbig hinterlegen
GUICtrlSetBkColor(-1, $COLOR_SILVER)
GUICtrlSetResizing(-1, $GUI_DOCKLEFT + $GUI_DOCKTOP + $GUI_DOCKBOTTOM + $GUI_DOCKWIDTH)

GUISetState(@SW_SHOW)

Global $sText = StringFormat("% 5d", $g_iZaehler) & @CRLF
_GUICtrlEdit_AppendText($text, $sText)

While 1
    Sleep(200)
    $g_iZaehler += 1
    $sText = StringFormat("% 5d", $g_iZaehler) & @CRLF
    _GUICtrlEdit_AppendText($text, $sText)
WEnd

Func _Exit()
    Exit
EndFunc

Do you have any suggestions.

Regards, Conrad
