DOCUMENT:Q111290 05-FEB-2000 [foxpro] TITLE :PRB: Pink System Highlight Causes FoxPro for Mac to Turn Pink PRODUCT :Microsoft FoxPro PROD/VER:MACINTOSH:2.5b,3.0b OPER/SYS: KEYWORDS: ====================================================================== ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The information in this article applies to: - Microsoft Visual FoxPro for Macintosh, version 3.0b - Microsoft FoxPro for Macintosh, version 2.5b ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- SYMPTOMS ======== If a Macintosh is set to display 16 colors and the highlight is the color pink, FoxPro for Macintosh's desktop, status bar, and other gray areas will turn pink also. CAUSE ===== This problem is caused by Apple's color remapping. Other programs that use a similar shade of gray will exhibit the same problems. MORE INFORMATION ================ Steps to Reproduce Problem -------------------------- 1. Load Microsoft FoxPro for Macintosh. 2. To change the number of colors to display, open the Control Panel, double-click Monitors, and choose the 16 Colors option. 3. To change the color of the highlight, double-click Color in the Control Panel and choose "Pink" as the highlight color. Note that the FoxPro desktop colors change from gray to pink.
