Month calendar appereance is not changing. RRS feed

  • Question

  • I have a couple of month calendars in my project which I would like to give a different back color and such, but somehow if i change the appearance properties of a Mont Calendar in the property window the Mont Calendar appearance doesn't change.

    Is this a common bug with the mont calendars or should I change the properties in the code itself?

    Anybody else had this problem?

  • There is no problem in changing the backcolor or calenderdimensions property in the properties window

  • Oke thnx folks. Well at my PC it still doesn't work. But I read somewhere that the Month calendar properties are defined by your windows installation configurations.

    So I have windows 7 ultimate installed here with a certain theme activated so that theme might define the appearance of the Mont Calendar or can this not be the case?

    I also tried to make a new project with only a Mont calendar in it and change the back color. But still nothing happened. The appearance stayed the same.

  • In addition to asgar I tested it with code and with the property box, no problems at all.

  • Then try it with the themes disable, that is something we don't need to do for you.

    Give us a reply if that was the problem.

    Oke I changed the theme to Windows classic and I could indeed change the background of the control. But when I use my own custom Theme I can't change anything.

    That kind of sucks.  Well At least I know the problem now.
