Hi All,
A graphical, hot tracking checkbox has always been 'transparent' when moving the mouse over it (not clicking) in VFP7, but no longer is so in VFP9. The setting of Themes (of the checkbox and of the form) appears to have no influence.
I have produced some code and put it hereunder. If run in VFP7, it will show the transparency. If run in VFP9, it will show the backcolor that's typical for normal buttons.
Is this a bug? Or is it by (new) design?
PUBLIC oform1
oform1=NEWOBJECT("form1")
oform1.Show
RETURN
DEFINE CLASS form1 AS form
Top = 0
Left = 0
Height = 96
Width = 232
DoCreate = .T.
Caption = "Form1"
BackColor = RGB(255,255,128)
Name = "Form1"
ADD OBJECT check1 AS checkbox WITH ;
Top = 24, ;
Left = 48, ;
Height = 30, ;
Width = 66, ;
Alignment = 0, ;
Caption = "Hello", ;
SpecialEffect = 2, ;
Style = 1, ;
Name = "Check1"
ADD OBJECT check2 AS checkbox WITH ;
Top = 24, ;
Left = 132, ;
Height = 30, ;
Width = 66, ;
Alignment = 0, ;
Caption = "Hello", ;
SpecialEffect = 2, ;
Style = 1, ;
Name = "Check2"
ENDDEFINE
