Setting font colour on GUICtrlCreateCheckBox

[fi3ldy]

Hey guys, may be a simple solution but it's bugging me and I've had no luck as of yet so was wondering if any of you could help me with this one.

I'm attempting to set the font colour on GUICtrlCreateCheckBox..

$save = GUICtrlCreateCheckBox("log me in automatically", 95, 140)
GUICtrlSetColor(-1, 0xffffff)

Only the font colour is continuing to stay black

Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

p.s Whilst I'm here, I'm also using an image with the GUICtrlCreatePic function, except any white in the image is becoming transparent!!??!

global $submit = GUICtrlCreatePic(@SystemDir & "\login.gif", 191, 171, 66, 24)

I've also tryed using .jpg format to ensure I wasn't saving any transparency with the .gif image, but no luck again.

Once again, thanks

This is for Windows XP

#include <GUIConstants.au3>
Dim $XS_n

GUICreate("My GUI Checkbox")  ; will create a dialog box that when displayed is centered
GUISetBkColor(0x000000)
If XPStyle(1) Then MsgBox(0,0,"on", 2)
$checkCN = GUICtrlCreateCheckbox("CHECKBOX 1", 10, 10, 120, 15)
GUICtrlSetColor($checkCN, 0xFF0000)
GUICtrlSetBkColor($checkCN, 0x000000);0xFFFFFF)
If XPStyle(0) Then MsgBox(0,0,"off", 2)
GUISetState()       ; will display an  dialog box with 1 checkbox

; Run the GUI until the dialog is closed
While 1
    $msg = GUIGetMsg()

    If $msg = $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE Then ExitLoop
WEnd

Func XPStyle($OnOff = 1)   
    If $OnOff And StringInStr(@OSTYPE, "WIN32_NT") Then
        $XS_n = DllCall("uxtheme.dll", "int", "GetThemeAppProperties")
        DllCall("uxtheme.dll", "none", "SetThemeAppProperties", "int", 0)
        Return 1
    ElseIf StringInStr(@OSTYPE, "WIN32_NT") And IsArray($XS_n) Then
        DllCall("uxtheme.dll", "none", "SetThemeAppProperties", "int", $XS_n[0])
        $XS_n = ""
        Return 1
    EndIf
    Return 0
EndFunc   ;==>XPStyl

thanks for the help, seems weird how a simple GUISetColor isnt supported for it

Any ideas on the image problem? White on image is becoming transparent and the background behind it is visible :s

change the type ( or save it as )

a bmp or a jpg type

gif's have a "transparent" feature

I stated in the first post I did already give it a go, but didnt change a thing. I specifically used a JPG knowing it doesnt support transparency at all
