At a loss with the listbox :(

In short, everything in my listbox works except the background colors.

The windows are the Nameserver and Appearance in the NewChar file. The text in these listboxes is on top of a colored background. The highlighted option being a different color than normal. No matter what I do, or change, the colors just won't change to my choosing.

I've followed the code by Zonx in the Fetish Nightfall UI to a tee, yet it just won't read my colors. Funny thing is, it shows the colors that he has laid out. I've checked, re-checked, and re-re-checked all my code and just can't figure this out.

My description may not be very helpful, but maybe someone can shed some light on the subject for me.

List box coloring is a nasty bit of nested styles and I think even a template file. 95% sure the colors you're attempting to change are coming from image art. You'll need to either change the DDS or change the references to point at some other image.

A little tip for yah... double-clicking a style ref in UIBuilder jumps you to that style def. Handy way to drill down this maze of nested styles till you get at the base object.
