Hi Tamar

I agree with you but this particular function in the help file does not say so. In any case I was looking for the form background color and trying to manipulate the colors in relation to the background so I do not have a color that is fixed but will adapt (hopefully looks good) if the form colors are different due to themes.

Thanks.

UPDATE: Does any current function give the same results?
