Re: Menu coloring using SetMenuInfo_ () not working with 64
Posted: Thu Dec 04, 2014 12:30 am
The menu bar or the menu items ?
The first code does nothing here, using PB 5.31 x86 on Win7 x64.
On the other hand adding #MIM_APPLYTOSUBMENUS
changes the background color of the menu items to yellow.
Still doesn't work on x64 though.
I don't think it's a terrific idea to change the bg color of a menu, not knowing what the foreground color is.
Well, I don't think it's a nice idea to change any color (OS themes are there for a good reason and you can piss off the user doing so), *unless* you owner draw all (maybe skinning your program entirely).
To make it work on x86 and x64 I've changed it as follow:
