Font color of CEikEdwin editor

[kumar_sai123]

Hi all,
I am using a plain text editor. I have enabled for skin support in my APPUI constructL [BaseConstructL( EAknEnableSkin );]. Also i have added code for skin support in my container. I get the background of the main pane as that of the skin in the editor. But my font color comes to be green. But i observe that in the applications available on phone (say message editor), the font color is white. I want to know how i can set the font of my editor exactly like the skin font. I am giving my code for reference.

RESOURCE EDWIN r_my_container_edit1
	{
	maxlength = 500;
	flags = EEikEdwinReadOnly ;
	default_case = EAknEditorTextCase;
	allowed_case_modes = EAknEditorAllCaseModes;
	numeric_keymap = EAknEditorStandardNumberModeKeymap;
	default_input_mode = EAknEditorTextInputMode;
	allowed_input_modes = EAknEditorTextInputMode | EAknEditorNumericInputMode | EAknEditorSecretAlphaInputMode | EAknEditorKatakanaInputMode | EAknEditorFullWidthTextInputMode | EAknEditorFullWidthNumericInputMode | EAknEditorFullWidthKatakanaInputMode | EAknEditorHiraganaKanjiInputMode | EAknEditorHalfWidthTextInputMode;
	special_character_table = 0;
	avkon_flags = EAknEditorFlagEnableScrollBars;
	lines = 100;
	}

void CTestContainer::ConstructL( 
		const TRect& aRect, 
		const CCoeControl* aParent, 
		MEikCommandObserver* aCommandObserver )
	{
	if ( aParent == NULL )
	    {
		CreateWindowL();
	    }
	else
	    {
	    SetContainerWindowL( *aParent );
	    }
	iFocusControl = NULL;
	iCommandObserver = aCommandObserver;
	InitializeControlsL();
	SetRect( aRect );
	ActivateL();
	iEdit1->SetCursorPosL(0,EFalse);
	
	iBgContext = CAknsBasicBackgroundControlContext::NewL( KAknsIIDQsnBgAreaMain,aRect,ETrue);

	}

void CTestContainer::InitializeControlsL()
	{
	iEdit1 = new ( ELeave ) CEikEdwin;
	iEdit1->SetContainerWindowL( *this );
		{
		TResourceReader reader;
		iEikonEnv->CreateResourceReaderLC( reader, R_MY_CONTAINER_EDIT1 );
		iEdit1->ConstructFromResourceL( reader );
		CleanupStack::PopAndDestroy(); // reader internal state
		}
	HBufC* text = StringLoader::LoadLC( R_TEST_CONTAINER_EDIT1_2 );
		iEdit1->SetTextL( text );
		CleanupStack::PopAndDestroy( text );		


   }

void CTestContainer::Draw( const TRect& aRect ) const
	{
	CWindowGc& gc = SystemGc();
	gc.Clear( aRect );
	
	

	 // Redraw the background using the default skin
	 MAknsSkinInstance* skin = AknsUtils::SkinInstance();
	 MAknsControlContext* cc = AknsDrawUtils::ControlContext( this );
	 AknsDrawUtils::Background( skin, cc, this, gc, aRect );
	}
				
TTypeUid::Ptr CTestContainer::MopSupplyObject(TTypeUid aId)
	{
	 if (iBgContext )
	 {
	   return MAknsControlContext::SupplyMopObject( aId, iBgContext );
	 }
	 return CCoeControl::MopSupplyObject(aId);
	}
