Hello again! This was sort of discussed a little earlier, but I don't recall seeing a consensus. I want to display a string gadget in a window whose primary background is color 2 instead of 0. I would, therefore, like the gadget to use color 2 for a background instead of 0. The RKM doesn't give a clue on this one. Do I have to track down the gadget's rastport and SetBgPen on it? Will that work or will Intuition get angry with me? Tell me there's a way! William LeFebvre Department of Computer Science Rice University <phil@Rice.edu>

I'm afraid to say you lose (until 1.4). Can't be done unless you roll your own gadget. -- Randell Jesup, Commodore Engineering {uunet|rutgers|allegra}!cbmvax!jesup
