Changing backcolor or brightness
Ok, now that I have the color chosen from the ColorDialog and it has
been applied to the forms, how do I get a color that is slightly darker
(if a lighter color was chosen) or slightly lighter (if a darker color
was chosen) for the various backcolors? i.e. if somebody chose blue, I
want to automatically change the various backcolors to light blue so
that the textboxes, listboxes, etc stand out more. This is a tall order
and I greatly appreciate any help on this! Or better yet, just change the brightness, if that's possible?!
Here's the code for the dialog:
Dim mycol
cdlg.ShowDialog()
mycol = cdlg.Color
Me.BackColor = mycol
FontStylesAndSizes.BackColor = mycol
