Hi,

in fact the pageframe will be displayed with a gradient effect (term from foxpro help), if theme is set to .t. and backcolor of page isn't manually changed.

From Foxpro help:

"For PageFrame controls, Themes determines whether tabs are themed. You might need to make minor modifications to forms that contain PageFrame objects. The Themes property provides a gradient effect on Page objects, so a label, option button, or similar control with text does not appear correctly if the BackStyle property of the control is set to Opaque. You can remedy this situation by setting BackStyle to Transparent."

But the difficulty is, that the resulting backcolor of the page isn't stored in any property of the object.

Bye,
Andreas
