Hello:

I’m experiencing a problem with a CExtColorButton/CExtColorCtrl combination (as in the ’Theme Colorizer example).

The problem is, that after the CExtColorButton popup menu uncovers the CExtColorCtrl, the CExtColorCtrl does not repaint itself if a SetupColor(crColor, true) call is performed. Otherwise, the CExtColorCtrl does repaint itself.

The CExtColorButton is initialized:

 m_btnColor.SetFlat( TRUE );
 m_btnColor.SetDrawBorder( TRUE );
 m_btnColor.SetDrawFocusRect( FALSE );
 m_btnColor.m_lParamCookie = LPARAM(IDC_BUTTON_COLOR);
 m_btnColor.m_bEnableBtnColorDefault = false;

The CExtColorCtrl is initialized:

m_wndColorCtrl.m_selClrs.m_clrCurrent =  m_wndColorCtrl.m_selClrs.m_clrPrev = m_wndColorCtrl.m_selClrs.m_clrNew = m_StrokeDescriptor.m_StrokeColor.m_Color;
 m_wndColorCtrl.SetupColor(m_StrokeDescriptor.m_StrokeColor.m_Color, true);
