Hi there,

I'm trying to change the background color of a EditField but no matter what the background of the field is just black.

LAYOUT(testLayout, 376, 140)
	ITEM(EditField, ef, LeftPosZ(24, 64).TopPosZ(12, 19))
END_LAYOUT
test::test()
{
	CtrlLayout(*this, "Window title");
	EditField::Style sd = ef.StyleDefault();
	sd.paper = White();
        sd.text = Red();
	ef.SetStyle(sd);
	ef.Refresh();
}

The text color is red but the background isn't it. Whats my fault?

Overriding style has to be static or global. Try

LAYOUT(testLayout, 376, 140)
	ITEM(EditField, ef, LeftPosZ(24, 64).TopPosZ(12, 19))
END_LAYOUT
test::test()
{
	CtrlLayout(*this, "Window title");
	static EditField::Style sd = ef.StyleDefault();
	sd.paper = White();
        sd.text = Red();
	ef.SetStyle(sd);
}
