$SS_CENTER and $SS_BLACKFRAME styles

[jercfd]

i am getting some problems with using both the $SS_CENTER and $SS_BLACKFRAME styles with labels in my gui. The $SS_BLACKFRAME is always above everything for some reason

$H = GUICtrlCreateLabel("1" & @LF & "H", 10, 10, 30, 40, BitOr($SS_CENTER,$SS_BLACKFRAME))
GUICtrlSetBkColor($H, 0xa0ffa0)

What you want? Create rectangle label with text and black border?

I want a label with a black border and text centered and have a certain background color.

I too am having the same problem. Is there a solution?

The easiest way I can think of to get a border round a label is to make another label bigger by twice the border width, and set it's style to $WS_CLIPSIBLINGS. You can easily change the colour of the 'border' label to make it flash for attention if you want or hide it.
