Can I set the color of a control programatically?

[shb]

Hello,

I would like to set the color of front panel controls by scripting. This only seems possible for some elements. A cluster has the property "Color",  a boolean element has "Colors[4]" and a decoration and a tab control have "Colors". What is about the other controls like numeric, array, string and ring?

Greetings,

shb

First, you can't set color on "system controls".

Then for other controls, it depends really... For strings/numeric/path for instance you can set different colors for different part of the control.

For a numeric : property > Numeric Text > Text Colors > BG Color + Text Color : that's for background color plus text color.

Hope this helps a bit

Not exactly I am afraid...

For the "system controls", you could set the text color but background color via property node
