Changing a Gui Window Color Topic is solved

[Alexander2]

Does anyone know why the window which is generated by the following code is white despite the fact that the code includes the command Gui, Color, Black?

Code: Select all

Gui, ContMenu1:New
Gui, -Caption +HwndContMenu1ID
Gui, Color, Black
Gui, Font, s17, Arial Black
Gui Add, Progress, Disabled BackgroundBlack
Gui Add, Text, xp yp wp hp BackgroundTrans cWhite -Wrap gExample, Example

Thank you. I can see that the script works as intended when it is run separately. I had copied it from a larger script which has other commands. Perhaps those other commands cause the color to be white rather than black.

You guessed it. The actual script matters.

Yes, I have now found what the issue was. There was a command in another place within the larger script which set the color back to white.
