Android Question How come the background color changes?

[Woody]

In my test app (based on Bluetooth.zip) the background of the activities was 'default'. This turned out to be white, in activity 1 and 2.

Now I copied over these files to another project. The 1.bal and 2.bal are renamed to more meaningful names. In these in the activity properties, it still says 'default' for the drawable color. Only when I compile and run the screen color is black, which makes the views invisible. Why is that? And, if I set the drawable color to white, how do I ever get it back to 'default'?

The theme is set on this line in the manifest editor:

CreateResourceFromFile(Macro, Themes.DarkTheme)
'Or
CreateResourceFromFile(Macro, Themes.LightTheme)

You are brilliant. Man, there is a lot for me to learn......

BTW, Is it a problem that while toying with itI set the color of the activity to 'white' instead of 'default'? I cannot set it back to default.

You should be able to set it back to default. Delete the color value and press enter.

Ah, so. Thanks for pointing that out!
