dialog background color?
How do you change the dialog background color. I have tried a fiew options but cannot get it to work. I am using NSIS version 2 beta 3. I am also using the modern ui.

You can change the background color of the Welcome/Finish page using the MUI_BGCOLOR setting.

To change the background colors the window and other controls, use SetCtlColors in your custom GUIInit function and custom page show functions.

I have tried this:

!define MUI_CUSTOMFUNCTION_ONGUIINIT myGuiInit

Function myGUIInit

FindWindow $0 "#32770" "" $HWNDPARENT
GetDlgItem $0 $0 1019
SetCtlColors $0 FF0000 00FF00

FunctionEnd


at compile time I get:

Invalid command: SetCtlColors

and it fails to compile

Maybe you have an old version of NSIS. Try update your NSIS using NSIS Update, or getting the Development Snapshot.
