Hi all,

I've got a non-VCL app using Windows' colour selection common dialog, and 
I've got a CCHOOKPROC-conformant callback function in place so I can send 
the dialog messages etc. if necessary. I'm also using CC_RGBINIT to select 
the colour the user starts with (in fact, just in case it matters, I'm using 
CC_ANYCOLOR | CC_ENABLEHOOK | CC_FULLOPEN | CC_RGBINIT).

Everything's working as expected, but I'm up against the old problem of 
modifying the colour selection using the 'extended' side of the dialog when 
the user hasn't clicked one of the 'basic' colours first. It's not a big 
problem, I'd just like to improve the interface.

Does anyone know of a workaround for this issue?

Many thanks,

GT
