BaseColors
Paul James, Lifecycle Technologies, Inc.
Have you ever needed an "on-the-fly" way to "tone down" your color palette to suit the needs of a particular client running 256 colors. Are you running any remote clients using Terminal Services, PCAnywhere, Citrix, etc. who don't want to push high color bandwidth? You don't want to have multiple versions of your screen though, right? Well, this little program can help!

Description
This program will accept a Form as a parameter and will change all of the colors on all objects on the form to best suit the color capability of the computer it is being run on (using Windows API calls). Why? Well, I have clients that run my programs over Terminal Services or via some remote connection. To make these connections faster, they are usually throttled down to 256 colors. 256 colors makes most of my "pretty" screens almost unreadable due to color-hatching. You can place a call to this code in the Init() of a form, in your framework, etc., and it will automatically scale the screen colors back to match the capabilities of the video settings in place in Windows. This program examines every object in every container on the form and determines whether it has any color properties that can be changed (like Backcolor, Forecolor, Linecolor, etc.). This code has only been tested under VFP7. *** Sept. 2003 *** Fixed broken FTP Link to get this file. *** Dec. 2006 *** New FTP Link.
