SELCOLOR Property

9.0B, PLBCMP GUI Only

The SELCOLOR property defines the color for the current selection or insertion point. The property uses the following format:

SELCOLOR={value | color object}

Note the following:

1. SELCOLOR may be used in SETPROP or GETPROP statements for RICHEDITTEXT objects.

2. The {color object} must have been previously created.

3. The {value} may specify the color as a BGR value or a Windows system color index. The {value} is a four (4) byte integer and may be a Numeric Variable, an Expression, or a literal. When the high order byte contains a value of 0x0, the next three bytes (twenty-four bits) are interpreted as a BGR value. When the high order byte has a value of 0x80, the lower order byte is an index value into the Windows system colors. The Windows system colors are defined by the user using the control panel.
