[comp.lang.smalltalk] insideColor of TextViews in R4

ban@doc.ic.ac.uk (06/21/91)

I have the following problem - can anyone help, please?

When I create a TextView in Objectworks R4 of a certain color (say white), then
plug it into a ScheduledWindow of a different insideColor, and then scroll that
TextView, the insideColor of the TextView changes (as I scroll) to the
background window's color. Only when I refresh the view (eg, by collapsing then
expanding the window) does the original color of the TextView return.

Am I missing something here? I know there are a couple of background/foreground
messages - but they don't seem to have any effect. How on earth do I maintain
the insideColor of my TextView???

I would be grateful for any suggestions.

Thanks,
