TSpeedButton and TToolbarButton ignores Font.Color in Windows. Is this
a bug or a limit? Or is there any trick to get the color changed?

Tested it in Lazarus 1.1(32Bit) and 1.2.4(32Bit).

try it with themes disabled if it works then it is theme overwrite.

Yes it is overwritten with themes enabled, but it does not make any
sense. I would call this a bug.

It makes perfect sense, themes are set/selected by the end user can
and should override everything in the application. Think of what
happens if you select a black color and my theme has black background
and white or yellow font colors, your choice should be overridden by
my theme selection no questions asked.

It limites my application in a bad way. There is no reason to limit
this. It should be work like you say, if clDefault is choosen. If not,
it should show the color the programmer has choosen.

No other system acts like this, look VS or Delphi you can choose the
color if themes are enabled.

Edit: It is definitely a bug, you can change the color in TButton or
TBitButton. Only Controls based on TGraphicControl do not work.
