Get Object Background Color

[gindi_khangura]

Hi,



Just a question in general; I have an object (window type) that I need to retrieve the background color from.

Using the object spy functionality shows that there is no property that exists for retrieving the background color.



I have searched through the help index and have not found anything pretaining to this.

Is there a TestComplete functionality that I can leverage to retrieve the background color?



We could attempt to take an image of the object and pick certain points on the image to retrieve the pixel colors from, but such a method is not guranteed to be always correct.

Hi,



Use the following "Object.currentstyle.backgroundColor" to get the the background color



Thanks

The object 'currentstyle' does not exist for the object that I'm attempting to get the property of.

Hi Gindi,

Go through the "Get a control's background color" How To article - it may help you.

Is that code available in Python?
