Line - add support for setting color in the RGB range #34

Closed EpicNet closed 2 years ago

EpicNet commented 3 years ago

The need for colored lines is to be able to make different separatores or nice inner borders to match the overall background color or image for the background, when you design a dialog into your own design, where the usual light gray lines not fit in any way and are considered useless in the toolkit for creating additional dialog box elements.

It is still not clear why this has not been implemented before. It probably has something to do with the line drawing method, and to add the ability to paint line in any color in the RGB range, maybe you will have to change the way of creating the line itself in the dialog.

It is assumed that the color adjustment will be done through the command: "/xdid -C"

Hopefully it can be done and I will see it in the next update. Thanks.

This was created in the latest version "v3.1-git469" with help control style simple. A discussion of the problem with drawing colored lines is here: https://github.com/twig/dcxdll/issues/63
