UltraModernUI and button color
Hi,

I have a problem with the cancel button of a custom page I'm using. I'm using nsis 2.40 and the latest UltraModernUI (build 2008-08-15) and the custom page uses InstallOptions 2.

The cancel button has the basic style on this custom page (and only this one!):

If I click next to go to the next page and then previous to display my custom page again the problem is gone:

I'm not the original developper of this script but it worked with a previous version of nsis and ultramodernui (and all the others custom pages don't have this problem with a similar code). The code for diplaying the custom page is the following:

Function SetPlacesBar

  WriteINIStr "$PLUGINSDIR\PlacesBar.ini" "Field 1" "Text" $(TEXT_PLACESBAR_DESCRIPTION)
  WriteINIStr "$PLUGINSDIR\PlacesBar.ini" "Field 2" "Text" $(TEXT_PLACESBAR_CONFIRM_MODIFY)
  WriteINIStr "$PLUGINSDIR\PlacesBar.ini" "Field 3" "Text" "$TEMP\placesbar.bmp"
  WriteINIStr "$PLUGINSDIR\PlacesBar.ini" "Field 3" "State" "0"

  !insertmacro MUI_HEADER_TEXT $(TITLE_MENU_PLACESBAR) $(SUBTITLE_MENU_PLACESBAR)
  !insertmacro MUI_INSTALLOPTIONS_INITDIALOG "PlacesBar.ini"
  ; In this mode InstallOptions returns the window handle
  Pop $HWND
  ;Apply the background color
  SetCtlColors $HWND "" "${MUI_BGCOLOR}"
  ;Apply the right text color and background color at all fields
  StrCpy $1 1200
  StrCpy $2 1202
  LoopItem:
    GetDlgItem $0 $HWND $1
    SetCtlColors $0 ${UMUI_TEXT_COLOR} ${MUI_BGCOLOR}
    IntOp $1 $1 + 1
    IntCmp $1 $2 LoopItem LoopItem Exit
  Exit:
  !insertmacro MUI_INSTALLOPTIONS_SHOW

FunctionEnd

It looks like your loop is fine to me, but what I would do as a test is instead of doing a loop, just hard code it like this as an experiment, and also do them all twice. Maybe there's something about a delay or some refreshing that doesn't allow it to stick the first time:

GetDlgItem $0 $HWND 1200
SetCtlColors $0 ${UMUI_TEXT_COLOR} ${MUI_BGCOLOR}

GetDlgItem $0 $HWND 1201
SetCtlColors $0 ${UMUI_TEXT_COLOR} ${MUI_BGCOLOR}

GetDlgItem $0 $HWND 1202
SetCtlColors $0 ${UMUI_TEXT_COLOR} ${MUI_BGCOLOR}

GetDlgItem $0 $HWND 1200
SetCtlColors $0 ${UMUI_TEXT_COLOR} ${MUI_BGCOLOR}

GetDlgItem $0 $HWND 1201
SetCtlColors $0 ${UMUI_TEXT_COLOR} ${MUI_BGCOLOR}

GetDlgItem $0 $HWND 1202
SetCtlColors $0 ${UMUI_TEXT_COLOR} ${MUI_BGCOLOR}

I tried without the loop and it didn't solve anything.

Function SetPlacesBar

  WriteINIStr "$PLUGINSDIR\PlacesBar.ini" "Field 1" "Text" $(TEXT_PLACESBAR_DESCRIPTION)
  WriteINIStr "$PLUGINSDIR\PlacesBar.ini" "Field 2" "Text" $(TEXT_PLACESBAR_CONFIRM_MODIFY)
  WriteINIStr "$PLUGINSDIR\PlacesBar.ini" "Field 3" "Text" "$TEMP\placesbar.bmp"
  WriteINIStr "$PLUGINSDIR\PlacesBar.ini" "Field 3" "State" "0"

  !insertmacro MUI_HEADER_TEXT $(TITLE_MENU_PLACESBAR) $(SUBTITLE_MENU_PLACESBAR)
  !insertmacro MUI_INSTALLOPTIONS_INITDIALOG "PlacesBar.ini"
  ; In this mode InstallOptions returns the window handle
  Pop $HWND
  
        GetDlgItem $0 $HWND 1200
        SetCtlColors $0 ${UMUI_TEXT_COLOR} ${MUI_BGCOLOR}

        GetDlgItem $0 $HWND 1201
        SetCtlColors $0 ${UMUI_TEXT_COLOR} ${MUI_BGCOLOR}

        GetDlgItem $0 $HWND 1202
        SetCtlColors $0 ${UMUI_TEXT_COLOR} ${MUI_BGCOLOR}

        GetDlgItem $0 $HWND 1200
        SetCtlColors $0 ${UMUI_TEXT_COLOR} ${MUI_BGCOLOR}

        GetDlgItem $0 $HWND 1201
        SetCtlColors $0 ${UMUI_TEXT_COLOR} ${MUI_BGCOLOR}

        GetDlgItem $0 $HWND 1202
        SetCtlColors $0 ${UMUI_TEXT_COLOR} ${MUI_BGCOLOR}
  
  
  !insertmacro MUI_INSTALLOPTIONS_SHOW

FunctionEnd

Is there any way to force the page to repaint itself?
