Why do my Boolean control get a different display when I the controls grayed out?

Solved!
Go to solution

I have some Boolean control in a cluster which I grayed out programmatically. If I do that this control's get grey as expected. But if I do that with Boolean which are grouped in a decoration field then the control become a blue style. How can I change the grayed out color?

Hi Wolf,

 

can you attach a VI?

 

For me the booleans are still "gray" when grayed out, regardless of putting them in clusters or grouping them in a decoration frame...

Hi Gerd,

 

attached a VI with this behavior. The Boolean are on page Battery Test and they are called Save Test and Load Test.

Hi Wolf,

 

they adapt to the color of their background, which is the blue tabulator control...

No, when grayed out they adapt to their background...
