I noticed that the control "Combo Box" + "Style = 4 Color" displays the list of colors.
However, the list is only ByLayer, ByBlock and colors 1-2-3-4-5-6-7
you can see "all the other colors?"
A Style 4 combo can display AutoCAD colors 1 - 255, plus ByLayer and ByBlock. You can use ComboBox-AddColor (http://www.opendcl.com/HelpFiles/index.php?page=Reference/Method/ComboBox/AddColor.htm) to add additional colors.
So you confirm to me that you can not add a link to the "select color" dialog to select another color.
So I should use 'ComboBox-AddColor' 255-7 = 248 times to add all the colors?
A combo box with 255/256 options? Is that wise? Why not use (acad_colordlg) or (acad_truecolordlg)?
This solution by Fred may be of interest:

This is now fixed for the next build.
BTW, the new ComboBoxLab sample is a great tool for experimenting with combo box controls.
ahhhhhhhhh......
it seemed strange that it was my choice to include only the colors 1-7 ;D
'm waiting for the next build. :)
