Does anybody know how to create a CEikLabel with a black box around the text?  I saw Eric's article on CEikLabel and was able to use it to create a label with a white font and red background.  Now I want to put a black outline around the CEikLable rect.

Any advice?

pirosl - thanks for the reply... looks like you are correct... I was able to draw the box by hand in the draw function of the container.  I guess the next step would be to create a custom control that inherits from CEikLabel that has code to support drawing an outline box.

Anybody know of any commercial library that includes UI widgets for S60.  I have seen RAD products for UIQ... but none for S60.

Yep....actually creating a custom control would be a better idea.
