I don't seem to be able to find a way of setting the progress bars colour? SetGadgetColor() does nothing?

Setgadgetcolor only seems to work on panels and textarea.
Lots of bug reports (search on 'Setgadgetcolor') which have been moved to the Bug Bin with no comment.
Setgadgetcolor/setgadgetalpha
Setgadget...

Most gadgets don't support gadget color.

Gadget alpha isn't even supported at all outside the minority OS of apple.

Guess it't time to re-invent the wheel AGAIN! I do wish the peeps at Blitz Research would listen now and again!

I think they do.
The problem is that the Windows MaxGUI bases on BlitzPlus ... which while it was a good thing for BB+ it does not seem to nearly suite the core needs for BM and I'm not sure if it was a that good idea to use it for MaxGUI.

but in the end its only a "short time" solution as it will have to go to .net at some point for future compatibility. (the mac version, for this small 2% user part, has been changed and part rewritten so I don't see why the large part of the user base has no right for a really working gui module they payed for)
