I was wonder how I can change the menu color highlighting  ect for the menus. I was tired of just plain old gray.  I was checking in the manual under menus and did not see a mention.

I am trying to move a program from liberty basic to emergence.

Based upon a search of the internet it should be something that could be done in EBasic via subclassing but it doesn't appear to be something for the weak of heart to attempt.

It appears it would take someone that has the skill-set of Paul or Sapero. 
I sure can't do it

You can ownerdraw a menu, but as Larry had mentioned it requires delving into API code to do it as you have to draw everything yourself.

Thanks Paul
I can see now that if I want this done. There will not be a quick easy way to do it.
by the way. Is it difficult to mimic the Liberty basic mouse commands. Or is that easy.
