wxGauge - Changing Colour?

Post by dominover »

Heyall

Would anyone know if there is a a recent work-around to change the color of wxGauge?
It currently only gives me green. By changing the foreground and background color doesn't do anything in the properties.

I'm running Windows XP, SP3.
wxWidgets 2.8.12.

thanks

Green? It's green under Win7, under XP it should be blue. But i think that's the color of the native control and can't be changed. If you need something else, you could create a custom control and draw one yourself.
Use the source, Luke!

It looks like that's what I'll do. Green it is for now.

Thanks
