Title: Question about TButtonPanel, TPanel and TGroupBox Color property
Post by: Ñuño_Martínez on August 10, 2016, 08:16:59 pm

About TButtonPanel:

I changed the default configuration of my Xfce desktop and I've find that background of TButtonPanel didn't match with other components nicely.  So I go to the Object inspector and... There's no Color property!  :o  So I had to change the panel colour by code at the form's onCreate event.

Why isn't TButtonPanel.Color published?  I think it should be.

Also I've realised that TCustomPanel, TCustomButtonPanel and TCustomGroupBox default background colour isn't clForm. This is quite annoying in some colour schemas in Linux.  I had to change all them manually to clForm.

I published it in r52795.

Now it is defined in TCustomPanel as:

Code: Pascal  [Select][+][-]

1. property Color default {$ifdef UseCLDefault}clDefault{$else}clBtnFace{$endif};

Should it be clForm? I don't know. What do others think?

Thanks JuhaManninen. :)

About the background color, I said clForm, but clBackground would be the right one too.
