pink Answer dog
using LC 9.6.9 on Mac Ventura and I notice when I build my standalone my Answer dlogs are pink.
is this a Ventura thing?Re: pink Answer dog
@jameshale: That is most strange!
If you have 9.6.8 (or 9.6.7) to hand - can you see if you get the same problem there? Does your standalone main stack have a pink background color (and therefore it could be an inheritence issue - answer dialog is made a substack of the main stack when standalones are built).

Re: pink Answer dog
@LCMark, pink persists in 9.6.8 I have archived earlier releases.
Background colour??
Hmm not aware that I have set this pink anywhere......
EGAD!! I do set the stack's backgroundcolor, and set it to PINK!
Set it to empty and dlog back to normal.
Thanks for the help Mark.

Re: pink Answer dog
Most of my projects have a substack called "RSRC" (intentionally ugly name to remind me it's not user-facing) where I store images for icons and stuff like that.
In that stack I usually set the bgColor to fuscia so any alpha channels are immediately evident.
Maybe you'd done something like that and just forgot to set it back?

Re: pink Answer dog
a Fun with Fuscia story:
My first Mac was an SE30, and although it was color-capable I didn't have an external monitor, so I did everything on the built-in 512x342 B&W display.
When I shipped my first product, it looked good in B&W and I felt comfortable putting it out the door. Sales came in, folks seemed happy.
Years later I was talking with a friend about that first product. It seems somewhere along the line I had set the line color in my logo to fuscia, giving in an almost psychedelic look. Of course on my screen the lines looked black, but everyone with a color monitor saw it in dayglo. My friend said, "It's not a color I would have chosen, but I thought it was something you'd meant to do, like some sort of punk statement or something."
