PictureEdit and WXI skin

created 4 days ago

Hello,

Does PictureEdit ignore changes to backcolor and backgroundimage when using the WXI skin? Is this standard behavior?

Regards

Roman

Hello Roman,

Yes, if the project uses the WXI skin, PictureEdit ignores changes to its background. This is because the WXI skin uses a special image to draw editors with rounded corners. To change the background, use the SkinEditor tool to create a custom skin or a skin patch.

I have attached a video demonstrating how to change the background of a PictureEdit with the SkinEditor tool.

I hope this helps. Should you have additional questions, please let me know.

      Hello,

      ok, I understand. So there is no way to change the runtime background appearance, just change it to another specific color in the skin editor?

        Hello Roman,

        Unfortunately, yes, since the WXI skin uses a special image to draw editors with rounded corners, the only way to change the background color of the editor is to change the color of the special image with the SkinEditor tool.

        This is true for everything except text input and drop-down editors. You can change the background color of text input and drop-down editors without modifying the skin since v23.1. Please refer to the following page for more information: New in v23.1.

        Let me know if you have additional questions.
