I've come across this problem as well. At design time, I set the
colors of Panel to greens, reds etc so it is easy to work with in the
form designer. At runtime I reset those colors to clBtnFace.
I can't remember which event handler I had to use. OnCreate or OnShow.
I know one of them didn't work, though expected both to work equally
well.
I'll double check and get back to you on this.

When does the OnCreate event for a form run? Does this happen after the

I am having a problem trying to restore font and color setting to a Tmemo
control
with values from a stored config file. In Delphi, I normally do this in the
forms
OnCreate Event, but in Lazarus, it apepars that the OnCreate event is run prior
to
creating of the child components because I am unable to restore these setting.
They always return to the default settings of the component.
If I run the routine to restore these setting in the forms OnActive event, they
restore perfectly.
