It it inside my DialogProc...or I should do a ButtonProc....
I could change the color of my Dialog ... (DialogProc), but not of my button.
What I want to do, to simplify, is when I press a button 1 I want to change the color button 2.
Someone could write some words about it to clarify this issue (please WinAPI).
Thanks
before Posting any new thread just search it on code guru.There is already a lot of Example Present for color button .
and
The WM_CTLCOLORDLG message is sent to a dialog box before the system draws the dialog box. By responding to this message, the dialog box can set its text and background colors using the specified display device context handle.
Syntax
WM_CTLCOLORDLG WPARAM wParam LPARAM lParam;
'CButton' is the only control that does not respond to the 'OnCtlColor()' message handler even though the MSDN explains it that way. To change the color of a 'CButton' control you have to set the style to ownerdrawn and do it yourself.
You will find a complete 'CColorButton' http://www.codeguru.com/Cpp/controls...icle.php/c2087. This class does not allow you to change the color at run-time...you will find a modified control http://www.codeguru.com/buttonctrl/ClrButton.html
