jiglei Posted August 1, 2009 Share Posted August 1, 2009 (edited) Hello everyone, I was wondering if it was possible to change the backround color of a tab control, cause it looks awful in my current gui, with those standard colors.I'm managing to do a program in blue scales, or maybe i'll change to black scales, but thats not what matters anyway, i'd like that the tabs also could be colored.I'm using Koda to build my guis, maybe thats what stopping me from coloring them, but not even in help file i can find somehow to do it.If someone can answer me i'd be grateful.Thanks for reading.Edit:By the way some strange thing happened to my gui:Koda didn't show gui like that...here is the full generated code by Koda, i don't understand why it stands white like that...expandcollapse popup#Region ### START Koda GUI section ### Form=c:\users\david\desktop\autoit\sbot manager.kxf $Form2 = GUICreate("Form1", 449, 303, 365, 173) GUISetBkColor(0x3399FF) $Tab1 = GUICtrlCreateTab(0, 0, 448, 297) GUICtrlSetResizing(-1, $GUI_DOCKWIDTH+$GUI_DOCKHEIGHT) $TabSheet1 = GUICtrlCreateTabItem("Window 1") $Group1 = GUICtrlCreateGroup("Char Data", 8, 32, 433, 105) $Label1 = GUICtrlCreateLabel("Char Name:", 16, 48, 60, 17) $Label2 = GUICtrlCreateLabel("Name", 80, 48, 32, 17) $Label3 = GUICtrlCreateLabel("Level:", 16, 64, 33, 17) $Label4 = GUICtrlCreateLabel("lvl", 48, 64, 14, 17) $Label5 = GUICtrlCreateLabel("Gold:", 16, 80, 29, 17) $Label6 = GUICtrlCreateLabel("0", 48, 80, 10, 17) $Label7 = GUICtrlCreateLabel("SP:", 16, 96, 21, 17) $Label8 = GUICtrlCreateLabel("0", 40, 96, 10, 17) $Progress1 = GUICtrlCreateProgress(192, 48, 150, 24) GUICtrlSetColor($Progress1, 0x00FF00) $Label9 = GUICtrlCreateLabel("Exp:", 160, 56, 25, 17) $Label10 = GUICtrlCreateLabel("0%", 248, 52, 18, 17) $Label11 = GUICtrlCreateLabel("HP:", 160, 80, 22, 17) $Label12 = GUICtrlCreateLabel("MP:", 160, 104, 23, 17) $Progress2 = GUICtrlCreateProgress(192, 80, 150, 16) GUICtrlSetColor($Progress2, 0xFF0000) $Progress3 = GUICtrlCreateProgress(192, 104, 150, 16) GUICtrlSetColor($Progress3, 0x0000FF) $Label13 = GUICtrlCreateLabel("0%", 248, 82, 18, 17) $Label14 = GUICtrlCreateLabel("0%", 248, 106, 18, 17) $Label17 = GUICtrlCreateLabel("Bot Status:", 16, 112, 56, 17) $Label18 = GUICtrlCreateLabel("none", 72, 112, 28, 17) $Button9 = GUICtrlCreateButton("test", 360, 72, 75, 25, $WS_GROUP) $Group2 = GUICtrlCreateGroup("Managing", 8, 136, 433, 97) $Button1 = GUICtrlCreateButton("Hide Window", 16, 160, 75, 17, BitOR($BS_DEFPUSHBUTTON,$WS_GROUP)) $Button2 = GUICtrlCreateButton("Show Window", 16, 184, 75, 17, BitOR($BS_DEFPUSHBUTTON,$WS_GROUP)) $Button3 = GUICtrlCreateButton("Start Training", 104, 160, 75, 17, BitOR($BS_DEFPUSHBUTTON,$WS_GROUP)) $Button4 = GUICtrlCreateButton("StopTraining", 104, 184, 75, 17, BitOR($BS_DEFPUSHBUTTON,$WS_GROUP)) $Button5 = GUICtrlCreateButton("Show/Hide Client", 192, 160, 91, 17, BitOR($BS_DEFPUSHBUTTON,$WS_GROUP)) $Button6 = GUICtrlCreateButton("Save settings", 296, 160, 75, 17, BitOR($BS_DEFPUSHBUTTON,$WS_GROUP)) $Button7 = GUICtrlCreateButton("Change Script", 192, 184, 75, 17, BitOR($BS_DEFPUSHBUTTON,$WS_GROUP)) $Group3 = GUICtrlCreateGroup("Set Radius", 288, 184, 121, 41) GUICtrlCreateInput("", 318, 198, 57, 21) $Button8 = GUICtrlCreateButton("Close Window", 16, 208, 75, 17, BitOR($BS_DEFPUSHBUTTON,$WS_GROUP)) $Group4 = GUICtrlCreateGroup("Notifications", 8, 232, 433, 57) $Checkbox1 = GUICtrlCreateCheckbox("Play a sound when this character DC", 16, 248, 201, 17) $Label15 = GUICtrlCreateLabel("Last recieved PM time:", 16, 264, 112, 17) $Label16 = GUICtrlCreateLabel("[HH:MM:SS]", 128, 264, 64, 17) GUISetState(@SW_SHOW) #EndRegion ### END Koda GUI section ###Don't ask me anything related with the program >_<, if you can't understand what it is aplied, its because its not build for you to use xDThanks...

martin Posted August 1, 2009 Share Posted August 1, 2009 It would be better to post some code we can run. I cannot see the effect you show but it looks like you are using WIn98 or you have themes turned off in XP maybe. If its just the group labels that are the problem then change the caption to '' and place a label with the correct colour there. There are examples of coloured tabs, search for $TCS_OWNERDRAWFIXED. Rasim did a nice one I think. Serial port communications UDF Includes functions for binary transmission and reception.printing UDF Useful for graphs, forms, labels, reports etc.Add User Call Tips to SciTE for functions in UDFs not included with AutoIt and for your own scripts.Functions with parameters in OnEvent mode and for Hot Keys One function replaces GuiSetOnEvent, GuiCtrlSetOnEvent and HotKeySet.UDF IsConnected2 for notification of status of connected state of many urls or IPs, without slowing the script.

jiglei Posted August 1, 2009 Author Share Posted August 1, 2009 I'm running windows vista with classic theme on, to save RAM. I re-started explorer.exe to see if that was the problem, keeps on showing that. Might be some bug... i dunno... But when running in vista mode, the whole window appears white, so i might give up the colored thing, cause its cooler on vista. Thank you anyway >_< Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
