>Don't get me wrong... most of my labels are black text and transparent background. Here's a
screenshot of a form with a few labels color matched to the titlebar. I think it looks pretty good :)
FWIW, I like it (but I like red ;-)).
Anyway, here is the WinAPI calls to get the Active Titlebar colors.
#define COLOR_ACTIVECAPTION 2
#define COLOR_CAPTIONTEXT 9
declare integer GetSysColor in user32 integer
lnbackcolor = GetSysColor(COLOR_ACTIVECAPTION)
lnforecolor = GetSysColor(COLOR_CAPTIONTEXT)
You could perform this in the label's Init and set the colors accordingly.
