[ You can't fool me with that old "line-eater" ploy ]

Well, I am becoming convinced that all of my posts are going into the
bit-bucket, because I haven't gotten any kind of response for weeks.
Please, if you are outside the state of NJ (and especially if you're on the
left-coast) send me mail indicating you've seen this.

I posted this a while back and got no response, so here goes again in a
slightly modified form.

You know the inverse "A" that appears in menus to the left of the command-key
equivalents?  Well, I have been unsuccessful in exerting any control over the
colors in which it's rendered.  I have menus which for certain reasons are
being rendered with color 0 as the background, and unfortunately Intuition
seems to think that the "A" should have color 0 as foreground and color 1 as
background.  This comes out looking really sh*tty.  I also have the same 
problem with the checkmark.

Now, I can sort of fix the checkmark problem by redefining the image for it.
Is there any way to redefine the image of the "A"?  Even better, are there
*any* pen variables I can set to control the rendering colors?  I think I've
tried them all, to no avail.

If the answer to all of this is "no", then I would be inclined to call this 
a bug in Intuition and file a real bug report if necessary.  Why doesn't 
Intuition use the standard pen colors when rendering the "A" and the 
checkmark?  It seems hardwired to colors 1 and 0, and it shouldn't be.

Looking forward to any kind of response at all,
