If you have played a little bit with the included examples, you may have noticed that the color scheme consists mostly of grey shades, like old versions of Windows. For a game, chances are you will like to change this. Fortunately, guisan provides an API for this in the Widget class:
setBaseColor()setForegroundColor()setBackgroundColor()
Now the question is: which is which? The following table summarizes the use of these colors in the existing widgets. When in doubt, check the code.
| Widget | baseColor | foregroundColor | backgroundColor |
|---|---|---|---|
| Button, ImageButton, ImageTextButton, ToggleButton | background, shadows | text, focus rectangle | - |
| Checkbox, RadioButton | shadows | text, focus rectangle, check/circle | background of the clickable area |
| Icon | shadows | - | - |
| InputBox | background, shadows | caption text | - |
| Label | border (if any) | text | - |
| ListBox | |||
| MessageBox | |||
| PasswordField, TextBox, TextField | |||
| ProgressBar |
