Label text color question

[rfresh]

This code should produce a yellow background with red text but the text is white!! And on my Acer Iconia 10 inch tablet, the "yellow" is more of a golden rod color.

lbl_screen_resolution.TextColor = Colors.Red
lbl_screen_resolution.Color = Colors.ARGB(120, 255, 255, 0)

Why do you use a semitransparent background?
You should use:

lbl_screen_resolution.Color = Colors.RGB(255, 255, 0)

Best regards.

I'm not sure why I was using the .ARGB but your method worked for the Yellow background, and the red text is now working again.

Thanks...
