SourceForge Headquarters 225 Broadway Suite 1600 San Diego, CA 92101 +1 (858) 454-5900

Hi All,

I am using Boa in developing my python app..=20

I need to change the background color of some controls based on ceratin =
parameters..
But if I use a variable to set the color I can't use the the frame =
designer any more.

an eg is

         self.panel6 =3D wx.Panel(id=3DwxID FRAME1PANEL6, =
name=3D'panel6',
              parent=3Dself.leftButtonPanel, pos=3Dwx.Point(0, 0), =
size=3Dwx.Size(133,
              16), style=3Dwx.RAISED BORDER | wx.TAB TRAVERSAL)
        self.panel6.SetBackgroundColour(wx.Colour(102, 102, 102))
        self.panel6.SetBestFittingSize(wx.Size(133, 16))

so if I define PANEL COLOR RED=3Dwx.Colour(255, 0, 0)
and use=20

        self.panel6 =3D wx.Panel(id=3DwxID FRAME1PANEL6, =
name=3D'panel6',
              parent=3Dself.leftButtonPanel, pos=3Dwx.Point(0, 0), =
size=3Dwx.Size(133,
              16), style=3Dwx.RAISED BORDER | wx.TAB TRAVERSAL)
        self.panel6.SetBackgroundColour(PANEL COLOR RED)
        self.panel6.SetBestFittingSize(wx.Size(133, 16))

I can't use the frame designer any more..
any help here..

cheers
