gPen (Function)

In french: gStylo

Builds a sequence of characters used to describe the color of the text and/or the color of the shape outline (rectangle or circle).

In a window, this sequence of characters sets the text and/or outline color:

in an element of a List Box or Combo Box control.
in the title bar and/or status bar of a window.
in a Static control.
Remark: It may be necessary to adjust the text after the content is defined.

Example

// Add "Yellow" colored in yellow in "LIST_ListColors"
ListAdd(LIST_ListColors, gPen(LightYellow) + "Yellow")

Syntax

<Result> = gPen(<Color>)

<Result>: Character string

Sequence of characters defining the color of the text or the color of the shape outline (circle, rectangle, ...).
This sequence of characters can be:
used in ListAdd, ListInsert or ListModify.
assigned to a Static control.
used in the title bar or status bar of a window.
This sequence of characters is not interpreted by the controls in WEBDEV. This function can be used to format the string returned by a WEBDEV Webservice consumed by a WINDEV or WINDEV Mobile application.

<Color>: Integer or constant

Display color for the text or for the outline of a shape (rectangle or circle). This color can correspond to:
an RGB color (returned by RGB),
