Coloring Rect of Create(lpszText,dwstyle,&rect,parentwnd,nID) white

I have below code

Code:

---

CStatic *text = new CStaic ;
CRect textrect(10,20,70,50);
MapDialogRect(&tectrect);

text -> Create(name.data(),WS_CHILD | WS_VISIBLE | SS_RIGHT,textrect,this);

---

The problem is text is displayed on rectangle with gray color. How can i paint that rectangle color to white?

Try to handle WM_CTLCOLORSTATIC message.

BTW, have you solved your problem with Editbox control?

You really need to use the resource editor. You're developing a really bad habit.

You could also subclass this static control (deriving your own class from CStatic and overriding OnPaint method).
I'd also recommend you to check out this site where you will find a lot of very useful tips and tricks including Changing Dialog Box/CFormView Color and many others.

Yes i solved editbox problem by passing correct parameters in CRect()

Then it would be a good idea to share the solution and mark that thread as resolved! ;)
