Well i have been trying to get the simple textfields to change color for my skinned window. Eh no luck though. i just needed a simple password textfield. However since Textareas are the only gadgets that can have there colors changed i did find a way to change a textarea into a password textarea.
Include "bin\user32.bmx"
Global windowt:TGadget = CreateWindow("win",200,200,200,300,Desktop(),1)
Global txtarea:Tgadget = CreateTextArea(10,10,100,20,windowt)
hWnd = QueryGadget(txtarea,1)
SendMessageA(hWnd, EM_SETEDITSTYLE, ES_PASSWORD,0)
SendMessageA(hWnd,EM_SETPASSWORDCHAR,1,0 )
there you go. it should make the Textarea into a password area. I know im not the only one who needed a colored password textfield... but i semi solved the problem by making the text areas use the same functionality.
