Well I'm somewhat new to Dark GDK. I'm using it in a college class and i have found 2 errors in the library so far. Or at least i believe them to be errors.

The first is in the RGB function when i want a certain color i have to switch the red and blue numbers.
For example for red i need to use RGB(0,0,255) while for blue i need to use RGB(255, 0, 0).

Now for the second problem i have come across. If i changing from the default ink set, and try to change it back my backspaces now put a whitespace where i backspaced. I tried all the different combinations with WHITE and BLACK in the dbInk() function and i can only draw if i change the ink back to dbInk(WHITE, WHITE);

Maybe its something else that i'm not noticing with these problems but some insight would be greatly appreciated.

These problems could be a user error, or maybe not. Could we see some code?

I haven't had this problem, could you post an example?

Here is an example and here is a screenshot. I don't really know how else to show and explain it.

I did 2 for each color because i didn't know if the backcolor would effect anything. So i did it to cover my basis.

You are using a Windows function by accident. The Dark GDK colour function is dbRGB, not just RGB. Change all the names and the order of the colours will be correct.

Ohhhh thank you, so that's what i was doing wrong.

Any idea on why backspacing when i change the default dbInk makes the space white, or whatever color the text is?

What exactly do you mean by backspacing, can you post some code for that too?

The code would be the exact same as i posted before. At the inputs when you backspace after having changed the ink you the backspace is white. Well at least in the case its just a white space. I even fixed it with dbRGB and it still gives a white space.

Sorry for not replying, I haven't been on the forum for a few days. Anyway, I don't know the answer unfortunately, and for me the question is still not completely clear, since there is no input in the code posted above.

Ohhh mybad, i thought i put input in there. Well i found the problem. I tried it with dbRGB() before to see if that was the problem and it didnt work. Now i tried it again while writing up some quick code and it works. So i guess my questions have been answered
