Default forecolor is set to ControlText and shows blue when running

1.3k views Asked by At

I am wondering if anyone else experiences this. I'm using Visual Studio 2010, all of my form controls have a default ForeColor of the system ControlText.

The font shows up as black when in design mode. The problem is when I run my application, everything that has this ControlText color shows up as blue while the form is inside the MDI container.

If I make the form pop out of the MDI parent, then the font changes back to black. Is this a glitch in my system?

I realize that the System colors sometimes change, depending on what colors the user selected for their computer system color scheme. But this font keeps showing as blue on win8 or winXP and doesn't matter what I change my system color schemes too.

Does anyone know what the deal is with this?
Is there a way to make my whole project quit using this ControlText as a default color?
Or is there a way to have my mdiParent control this color to not show as blue?
