Re: wxPerl behavior on Win32

Have you tried   $frame->SetBackgroundColour(wxRED);?

From the wxBook, "Because wxFrame derives from wxTopLevelWindow and wxWindow, please also refer to the member functions for these classes".

Stock color objects are wxBLACK, wxWHITE, wxRED, wxBLUE, wxGREEN, wxCYAN, and wxLIGHT_GREY. There are also many available standard colors, too many to type here, accessed by:   Wx::Colour->new("yellow"); or Wx::Colour->newRGB(#,#,#);

this work well:




$frame->SetBackgroundColour(Wx::SystemSettings::GetSystemColour(wxSYS_
+COLOUR_WINDOW));




now there are no dark areas around widgets. almost.

Great! Glad you found a fix.
