Changing the Connection ID text color and background?

Post by ljac »

On the current release (3.1) is there a way to change the Connection ID text background?

Thanks in advance.

Lines 41-47 of the file SRC\InstantSupport.au3 customize the GUI.

I recommend using the AutoIt Script Editor editor (SciTE) from the AutoIT package: https://www.autoitscript.com/autoit3/downloads.shtml

Code: Select all

; Create the GUI.
$InstantSupport = GUICreate( "Instant Support", 450, 200, -1, -1, BitOR( $WS_SYSMENU,$WS_CAPTION,$WS_POPUP,$WS_POPUPWINDOW,$WS_BORDER,$WS_CLIPSIBLINGS,$WS_MINIMIZEBOX ) )
GUISetBkColor( 0xFFFFFF )
$Label2 = GUICtrlCreateLabel( $RandomNumber, 0, 100, 450, 100, $SS_CENTER )
GUICtrlSetFont( -1, 50, 800, 0, "Arial Black" )
$Pic1 = GUICtrlCreatePic( $TempPath & "\logo.jpg", 0, 0, 450, 90, BitOR( $SS_NOTIFY,$WS_GROUP,$WS_CLIPSIBLINGS ) )
GUISetState( @SW_SHOW )

Thanks Supercoe! I can see where to change the background color but not the Font color.

I'm guessing is somewhere around line 45:

GUICtrlSetFont( -1, 50, 800, 0, "Arial Black" )

Sorry about that, I forgot that the color wasn't in those variables.

You'll want to add this line below GUICtrlSetFont....

Code: Select all

GUICtrlSetColor(-1, 0xff0000)   ; Red
Change the color based on the second variable (hex value).

Here is the first hex based color wheel I found on google: http://www.allprofitallfree.com/color-wheel2.html
