# TStatusBar.Color

The background color of the control.

## Declaration

Source position: comctrls.pp line 184

`published property TStatusBar.Color : TColor default clDefault;`

## Description

Color is a published TColor property in TStatusBar. The default value for the property is clDefault or clBtnFace (depending on the UseCLDefault compiler define). If the color is clDefault, the result will need to be passed through GetDefaultColor to resolve clDefault to an actual TColor value.

Convenience routines which obtain the color by resolving clDefault and ParentColor are provided in the GetColorResolvingParent and GetRGBColorResolvingParent methods in the TControl ancestor.

Remark: | For the macOS Carbon widgetset, the Color property is not supported in TStatusBar. The status bar is always transparent on the platform.
