About background colour of symbols window

[mandrav]

Yes, but the real problem is wxFNB.

Yes, wxFNB was responsible back when we didn't use a panel for those comboboxes above the symbols browser.
But it isn't responsible anymore. It can't be. There's a wxPanel there. I don't understand why it behaves like that for you guys. As you can see from my screenshot above, it works fine here. As expected...

This is how to "fix" (I'm not saying this code should go in SVN trunk just proving my point....).

mandrav see my post above. This only happens on Windows. The reason is wxSYS_COLOUR_APPWORKSPACE is a different color on Windows than on *nix.

OK, I think I see why this happens. Give me a few minutes...

First of all, the fix has been committed.

OK, here's what happens.
You 're using the symbols browser docked inside the project manager's notebook, while I 'm using it as a free floating window. When I docked it here too, I saw the problem.
It still doesn't make sense why this happens. There's a panel there. It should paint itself. Period. But it doesn't...
Anyway, as I said, I committed the fix so enough about this

Strange things happens.
