My Program Doesn't recognise RequestColor()...

The Identifier turns yellow, but I get a compile error stating that it
isn't familiar with the identifier. Does anyone have any ideas on what the problem might be? I'm using Version 1.28 of the I.D.E , Tried,
then uninstalled the BLide I.D.E , and am currently using the Grey
Alien Framework, if any of this information might help. :-/

Thanks for you help, everyone! :-)

RequestColor() is part of MaxGUI, which is a separate product from BlitzMax.

You can find it on the Products page.

Thank you very much for helping me!

I... think I already have the MaxGUI. I can use RequestFile and Notify
without problems. Those are part of the GUI too, right?

... Well now, that i s strange! I used the 'Import MaxGui.Drivers' command
at the top of my main file, and it worked fine! I guess the real question
is, how was I able to access RequestFile() or Notify() without that header.
O_o Aww, all's well that ends well! One more "thank you", and I'm off!

God Bless!

Requestfile and Notify are part of Bmax core in BRL.system

Requestfile and Notify are part of Bmax core in BRL.system

...and all modules with the BRL. and PUB. prefix are imported automatically (unless you choose to restrict this using Framework).

RequestColor() is part of MaxGUI (which is in its own MaxGUI. namespace and so you have to explicitly import it by calling Import MaxGUI.Drivers).
