Hi,

when using set_item_instance_property and set_va_property watch out for bug 1798217 if using patch 4 for developer 6i or above (Patch 3 workd fine).

.. from Metalink
*** 05/23/01 03:10 am ***
Problem description:



If SET_VA_PROPERTY('VA', BACKGROUND_COLOR, 'R255G128B0') is used with a color where the RGB component has not a value 255 or 0, it does not
work.
Here ....G128...
.
.. snip ..

This also bugs in case of set_item_instance_property(..., background_color, ...) directly and not via VA.

It also ends up in all VA having the same colour ( exactly the coluor of the last executed set_va_property - expression) after setting different colours to different VA at runtime. Since the bug is of low priority there is currently no patch for this to expect. :-((
