Problems with labels back colour
posted

Hi,
I have a label on a group box.  On the label I can set the appearance forecolor fine, but the appearance backcolor doesn't work.  I can set it design time and it shows in the designer, but at run time it reverts back and setting it in code doesn't work.  I'm assuming its something to do with the skin overriding the colours?

Any idea how to get around this?

Regards
Chris

    Hi Chris,

    It sounds like your application is probably loading an application style library.

    Check your code for "StyleManager.Load" and see if you are loading an isl file.

    If you are, then you will need to change the label colors in the isl. Or, you could set UseAppStyling on any UltraLabel control to False to have it ignore the AppStyling.
