Forms12.2.1.3: design limitation of frames using custom color schema

FCHSep 3 2018 — edited Sep 6 2018

I am trying to design a professional screen design with Forms 12.2.1.3 and custom color schema. I am close to a nice solution but can't display frames (with frame titles) according to ist properties.

The problem I have is that I can't design frames in forms 12c independed of the "light" color definition in the custom color schema.

Once I have choosen to use the custom Color Schema I have no influence in the design of the frame. The frame will always occur in the color of "colorScheme.xxx.light".
All properties (linesize, bevel, style, foreground color, backround color) will be totally ignored during runtime (but displayed in the builder fine).

This seems to be exactly the same behavior in Forms11 (I tried teal - and frames get always ugly green)

Because there are many functions of the "light" Color Definition (lower corner of inactive Buttons, inactive module title, inactive tab canvas and many more) I have no chance to  change the occurence seperatly.

Has anyone found a workaround how to show the frame diffrently to the color of the "light" definition?

If I use a rectangle everthing works fine and independend.

If there is no workaround my change request would be to handle frames in the same way as rectangles - independed of the "light" definition and according to the user defined properties of the frame.
