[invalid] Laz 2.2 Color issue for new group boxes
lazarus / 31-LCL

I have an issue with the default settings of group boxes:

- add a new group box (or radio/check group) to a form

result: the property "Color" is at "clWindow". The IDE tells me that
"clDefault" would be the default. So it appears as oif new group boxes
are created with a non-default Color. Or the IDE is telling the wrong
default.

I am using Lazarus 2.3.0 r65474 FPC 3.2.2 x86_64-win64-win32/win64 but
that means the issue is also in Laz 2.2.

should I open a bug report?

In case it matters, Lazarus 2.0.12 on Linux x86_64 sets the group box
Color to clDefault.

Maybe it has been changed to resolve clDefault at design-time?

Cannot confirm: I add a TGroupBox to a new form, go to its Color
property, and its value is clDefault.

Yes, this was false alarm. I set this color in my main form and
therefore the color was inherited to its childs.
