[Marco Maria Vilucchi]

Hi, i need to change TextXolor of a Label and i can take the color from a variable

    Dim ColActive As ColorDrawable
    Dim ColInactive As ColorDrawable
    ColActive.Initialize(Colors.black, 10dip)
    ColInactive.Initialize(Colors.LightGray, 10dip)
    Label1.textcolor=ColActive
    Label2.textcolor=ColInactive
    Label3.textcolor=ColInactive
    .....
    Label99.textcolor=ColInactive
    Label100.textcolor=ColActive

I have an errore on Label1.textcolor=ColActive and Label2.textcolor=ColInactive
Someone can help me?

ColorDrawable is for background. You need to use something like this:

Dim colActive As Int =Colors.Black
Dim colInactive As Int =Colors.LightGray
Label1.textcolor=ColActive
 Label2.textcolor=ColInactive
 Label3.textcolor=ColInactive

Or even define as a Constant

Private Const colActive As Int = Colors.Black
Private Const colInactive As Int = Colors.LightGray

'you can also define more colors than the built in Colors   
Private Const colActive As Int = Colors.RGB (0,139,139)

Another option. Right click, select Color Picker, choose the color and click on Copy to clipboard:

Dim tc As Int = 0xFF800080 'the format is AARRGGBB
...
Label1.TextColor = tc
