Hi,

I don't know if this question was asked/answered in other threads. If so, please redirect me to it.

The issue is:
I have a toolbar created with forms 6i. i want to change its buttons' shape in order to make it look exactly like let's say Internet Explorer 6 buttons (with no borders, similar to display item in forms with bevel set to None). Is it possible to do it with forms 6i or forms 10g?

Thx in advance

Hi again,

i solved my problem by creating a menu with forms 10g. I set "Visible in Horizontal Menu Toolbar" to Yes for all my items (buttons) that should appear in the toolbar (Property palette of the menu items).

Now i want to change the default color of this toolbar. Where shall i set the color setting?

thx

Hi David,

thx for your fast reply.
Actually, i don't have a toolbar. I've created a menu and changed its items settings in order to appear in the horizontal toolbar. I've tried to search for the background setting on the menu level but couldn't find any related to the horizontal toolbar. So the question is: is it possible to change the default color of this "horizontal menu toolbar" generated when running the form?

thx again

Rgds
