Yes, that's exactly what I meant (sorry, I should have been more clear). When I've derived something from Fl_Group, changing its color is likely to mean changing the color of 1 or more of its components. It's easy to implement that, but, as I said, the caller can't get at it through Fl_Widget::color().
