How to change background color in dialogs?

[Jerry LeVan]

Hi,

I can't seem to find the magic to change the background color
in a dialog...

Here is a fragment that does not work:


class LoginDialog(wx.Dialog):
     def __init__(self, data):
         wx.Dialog.__init__(self, None, -1, "Postgresql Login Dialog")

         res=self.SetBackgroundColour("blue")
         if res :
           print "changed "+str(res)

         self.Refresh()


And later I have

app = wx.PySimpleApp()

data = { "user" : "levan", "port" : "5432" }
dlg = LoginDialog(data)
dlg.ShowModal()
dlg.Destroy()

Is it possible to set the background to a non default color? ( on my
mac it is always white ;(

Python 2.5.1 / wxPython 2.8.3 / MacOSX 10.4.9

Thanks,

Jerry
