Pro/Toolkit : how can I set the background color?

[Emilie]

Hello,

I am using the Pro/Toolkit and I would like to change the background color in ProE 5.0. How can I do this? I don't see the right function to do this?

I only saw ProColormapAlternateschemeSet() but I can't set every color I would like.

Thank you very much

Emilie

I tried also :

ProColor old_g_color;

ProColor background;

background.method = PRO_COLOR_METHOD_RGB;

background.value.type = PRO_COLOR_BACKGROUND;

background.value.map.red = 1;

background.value.map.green = 0;

background.value.map.blue = 0;

ProGraphicsColorModify(&background, &old_g_color);

ProWindowRefresh (-1);

but it is not working... 😞

I also tried

ProColormap colors;

colors.red = 0;

colors.green = 0;

colors.blue = 1;

ProColormapSet(PRO_COLOR_BACKGROUND, &colors);

ProWindowRefresh (-1);

This last try seems to change the color when I go to View/Display Settings/System Colors. I can see that the color assigned to background changed but it is not really changing the background color...

Please help!

I forgot to post the solution I found :

ProError err = PRO_TK_NO_ERROR;

char* p_option = "system_background_color";

ProName w_option;

ProName w_option_value;

char* color = "0 100 0"; //set here the color

ProStringToWstring(w_option_value, color);

ProStringToWstring(w_option, p_option);

err = ProConfigoptSet( w_option, w_option_value );
