Xailer & OZ Software

With XP Theme off, I tried to replace the Windows Default ugly, dark gray
"InactiveCaption..." color for a TPanel object in an Explorer bar. The color
changes in the IDE, but when you run the application, it doesn't change.
Also, if you exit Xailer and return, the old color is back to
"InactiveCaption..." Same for TBevel *and* TScrollBox. In other words, the
color change is not "sticking."

I forgot to mention, I am using the TBrush setting, not the nClrPane
setting. It does change using the nClrPane setting, but I want a custom
color. I'm guessing the intended way this should work is that a TBrush
should override the nClrPane setting, no?

If you want a custom color, just double-click on the nClrPane property from
the object inspector. The nClrPane property is always prefirable over the
oBrush property, which is sometimes ignored by the control.
