Has anyone successfully used the PyCWnd.OnCtlColor
virtual function to change the appearance of a
control?
The program below tries to use it to set the colour
of the text in a PyCButton. My OnCtlColor method gets
called, but it doesn't have any effect on the appearance
of the button.
Also, if I attempt to return a PyCBrush from the
OnCtlColor method as the docs suggest, I get
"TypeError: An integer is required" errors.
Am I doing something wrong?
#--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
import win32con, win32ui
from pywin.mfc.object import Object
class MyFrame(Object):
def OnCtlColor(self, dc, btn, typ):
print "MyFrame.OnCtlColor:", self ###
dc.SetTextColor(0x0000ff)
# Doing the following causes "TypeError: An integer is required"
#b = win32ui.CreateBrush()
#b.CreateSolidBrush(0x00ff00)
#return b
frame = MyFrame(win32ui.CreateFrame())
frame.CreateWindow(None, "Test", win32con.WS_CAPTION,
(100, 100, 300, 300))
button = win32ui.CreateButton()
style = win32con.BS_CHECKBOX
button.CreateWindow("Hello", style, (20, 20, 100, 40),
frame, 0)
button.ShowWindow(win32con.SW_SHOW)
frame.ShowWindow()
app = win32ui.GetApp()
app.Run()
